Knockando Woolmill Trust Rug
LATEST NEWS - We've now sold out of the limited edition rugs - thanks to everyone who purchased one.
We're pleased to offer this limited edition rug as part of our fund raising activities.
The rugs measure 1.9m x 1.4m (6'3"x 4'7") and just 45 have been produced. And you can purchase one for £95.00 including packing and postage in the UK (£105 for overseas sales)
A few words about the rug from Hugh Jones, current owner and weaver at Knockando Woolmill...
"I've been weaving the Knockando Estate tweed for many years now. This tweed, and those of many other estates, have been a mainstay of trade at Knockando for generations before me.
When thinking on a design for a rug to support the woolmill trust's fundraising, the Knockando Estate cloth was an obvious starting point but the pattern size was too small for a rug, which needs a large repeat to look right... and so we blew it up (to 5 x size) to make this original throw which, I think, came out quite handsome. I made 47 and after finishing (fringe rolling, washing, raising etc..), there are 45 left. I hope you will want and enjoy one of them."
