Handwoven Textiles by Barbara Lyons Pickel
Rug & Pillow Collection
Rugs, in either cotton or wool, need to be durable. Cotton repp and rag rugs are tightly woven and can be washed easily. Wool rugs woven with thick rug wool can stand up to lots of foot traffic. And if you can't bring yourself to walk on a handwoven rug, you can always hang it on the wall.
