6-ft sq. woolen rug, striped (Petworth/ Park View)
This square rug is very thick and warm but it sheds A LOT. Minimal friction rubs off little bits of fuzz, which migrate off their own stripes and onto stripes of contrasting colors. Then they are extremely noticeable. Also the cat in the picture loves to claw at it and pull even more fuzz off the pile. If you have a cat, it will probably feel the same way. Plus the cat hair sticks to the fuzz. Furthermore it is very cumbersome to clean the entire rug. Therefore the best place for this rug would be in a lightly used room with no access for animals, small children, food, art supplies, cosmetics, etc. etc. Alternatively it would work well as insulation from cold or sound under a large piece of furniture (bed, grand piano, sofa). PS. Clothes moths also like to eat woolen rugs and I just learned today that they prefer to eat wool that has some food on it because they need extra nutrients besides what’s in the wool itself. Thanks, YouTube algorithm! So definitely try to keep it clean. PPS. I researched how to clean woolen rugs, and learned that wool can only be cleaned with soap and lots of cold water (never hot water). Wool is extremely absorbent, so a woolen rug becomes incredibly heavy and takes a very long time to dry. So spot-clean only, unless you’re going to take it outside in summer and use a hose, and you would need to rig up a seriously heavy-duty drying rack or rope. .
