For your Investment....
Rotation:
A
rug should be rotated once or twice a year to ensure even
wear. In high traffic areas rotation should be more frequent.
The frequent rotation of a rug will equalize the effect
of the sun.
Padding:
It is recommended to use quality padding under your rug.
This will protected it from dirt, wear and slippage.
Vacuuming:
Rugs should be vacuumed regularly to remove dirt and grit
that may damage the fibers and foundation of the rug. Be
careful with the cleaner equipped with the power brush as
they create a racking effect on the pile and can eventually
weaken the knots. Be very careful with the fringes as they
get caught and chewed up by the rotating mechanism of the
brush.
Cleaning:
Cleaning by a professional rug cleaner recommended
every two to four years, depending on the amount of traffic
your rug experiences. Wool & Knots offers old fashion rug
washing without use of any heavy chemicals or machinery.

Shedding is normal for wool rugs. Vacuuming twice
a week usually reduces the shedding.
