An Alternative to Cotton

Capel Rugs is one company known for producing a large variety of braided rugs that it generally classifies under numerous lines. While a number of these collections are generally made of cotton fabric, there are also several Capel-manufactured braided rugs that are made of other fabric, notably wool.
A braided wool rug involves an intricate and often difficult process, the main reason why most area rugs are made of cotton, which is comparatively easier to handle and manipulate. Still, it is quite interesting that Capel Rugs has decided to make use of this particular fabric to produce a unique brand of braided rug. Apparently, it has been successful in this aspect judging by the number of wool-based rugs that it has produced under its In the Valley rug line.
Specifically, its In the Valley 275 Olive braided rug has been produced involving three-ply yarn of the finest wool fabric in the world, making one wonder how it was able to achieve this. Then again, the fact that its braided rugs are all machine-made is perhaps the best answer to this particular issue.
The In the Valley 275 Olive braided rug is nearly made of wool, with a small five percent occupied by other fabrics. Making this rug even more attractive are the colors that were chosen to serve as background designs for the rug, which are all 18th century palettes. If one prefers more traditional area rugs, the 275 Olive perfectly fits the bill.
For only $44.25, one can get hold of this classic braided rug, which can actually be purchased online by simply clicking on rugsexpress.com.
