Case SPINDLE Cotton throw with graphic pattern

Designed in London and handwoven in India, Eleanor Pritchard's Spindle Rug features a large-scale pattern of repeating thick and thin blocks centre-scored with a fine accent line.‎ The pattern has a pleasing simplicity and references the vertical line of yarn on a traditional drop spindle.‎ Available in three sizes and the option of a hand-tufted or a flat-weave design.‎ Hand-tufted rugs have a pile and are manually made using a tufting gun.‎ The rug design is placed on a cotton fabric which is stretched tightly over a frame.‎ The tufting gun pushes wool thread through the cotton, which is fastened to the base of the rug.‎ The rug is then sheared so that all of the loops on the top of the rug are cut, which creates the pile.‎ Hand tufting allows for the creation of curved patterns which vary in strand length.‎ Hand tufted rugs are extremely durable and can withstand high traffic.‎ Flat-weave rugs have a flat finish and no pile.‎ Flat-weave rugs are manually made using a vertical process which involves tightly knotting each thread.‎ A small braid is made with each weave, creating the most characteristic feature of this traditional technique.‎ Further info from manufacturer on SPINDLE Case
