Description

I first designed the Vintage Ski Jumper Hooked Rug as a special custom gift.  As you know, poring over old photographs is a favorite way of brainstorming and putting my rugs together, and this rug was no exception.  There were a few additional personalizations in that first rug, but the overall design stands well on its own.  I love how this version of the vintage ski jumper comes together in color and mood.  I can just feel the sense of being airborne when I look at this skier.  It’s the perfect accent for the ski house or any house with a winter lover in it.

This rug is hooked with a combination of recycled cashmere from sweaters and recycled vintage wool, providing beautiful colors and textures.  There’s a tad bit of new wool, too.  I hooked it on a linen foundation.

The Vintage Ski Jumper Hooked Rug can be used as a table runner or hung on a wall.  There are a couple easy ways to hand any rug on wall.  If you’ve never done this before, don’t hesitate to ask me how.

Measures about 26″ x 14″.

This piece is made to order and there will be some variations from the photos.  The nature of the recycled and hand-dyed materials I use means that no two pieces will ever be exactly the same.  If there is something you’d like to customize about the piece, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
