About this product
Every ball is rolled by hand from carded wool in hot soapy water until the fibres lock. They are then dyed, dried, and strung in rows on a heavy thread before the rows are stitched to each other.
A 90 cm rug is somewhere north of six hundred balls and a couple of days of work. The texture is what makes it — a flat weave gives you a surface, this gives you something that moves slightly underfoot.
New Zealand carpet wool rather than local mountain wool, because it felts more consistently and holds dye far better.
How it was made
Wet-felted, hand-strung — Kathmandu.
