Bulletin #5: WAGON WHEEL RUGS

This is a positive classic rug. It is woven-in-the-round on a wooden frame (which can be either square or round). Originating in the Scandanavian countries, it is easy to make wagon wheel rugs from wools or cotton flannels which are quite striking, and still very durable and practical. Instructions include frame construction and weaving for the traditional round, and the novel oval shape. Once you know the traditional 'trick' of weaving these rugs, you can make rugs of any size.
