This rug evolved from a larger version that we made using the same yarns but different colors. We decided that we needed a slimmer, longer version to use as a runner. This is warp-faced plain weave, so almost all of the color that you see is from the warp yarns of Quebecoise wool. Two wefts, a heavy one made from three strands of Quebecoise and a fine one made of Cotton 8/4, are visible only at the edges of the rug. The warp ends wrap around the wefts and enclose them. The kit makes a runner measuring approximately 21.5" x 54.5" plus fringe. It can be spot cleaned and, if necessary, hand washed.

You will need:

• 22" weaving width
• 4 harnesses
• 6 dent reed
• 264 heddles
• 1 flat, ski, or rag shuttle
• 1 additional shuttle, any style

Our runner uses Quebecoise 25 Plum as the main color, with 14 Orange and 23 Magenta as the secondary colors. The fine weft is Cotton 8/4 color 4273 Dark Purple. If you would like your rug to be in this color combination, simply order the kit above. If you would like to choose your own colors, please see our Quebecoise and Cotton 8/4 pages to see the colors available. Then order the kit here and tell us your color choices in the box above. You need to select three colors of Quebecoise and one of Cotton 8/4. Please specify which is the main color in Quebecoise.
