5’ x 7’ white & grey wool rug (Scotts Valley by Vine Hill Rd.)

This rug is white and dark grey, with blocky patterns, is 5 x 7 feet and 100% wool.
It’s a really nice rug.
But it was dirty. So I washed it using a pressure washer, including the sudsy soapy mode followed by thorough rinsing.
Made it much cleaner. But not perfectly clean like it’s never been used. And that’s the main reason my wife wants me to get rid of it.

But… it did not dry perfectly flat, so it has some wrinkles and a bump or two from drying while distorted.

If you wet it and hang it evenly to dry, the wrinkles and bumps will go away.
But you can’t just hang it from a clothes line, that will make it sag, which results in distortions while drying and resulting in wrinkles so it won’t lay flat. Best drying method would be draping it over something that won’t sag. Like a pole at least 6 feet long. But if it’s a metal pole, you’ll want to wrap some old towels around the pole first, or you’ll have a rust line on the back side.
If your pole is wood, then it will sag.

Or, just lay it out (without wetting it) and I think the wrinkles will settle down over time.

We’ll meet at the nearby Starbucks. Because the turnoff from 17 to my house is hard to find, and sketchy if you even could find it.
That would be the Starbucks at:
5600 Scotts Valley Drive in Scotts Valley.

Thanks for keeping stuff out of the landfill!
