Nothing warms a New England winter more than a cozy rug to step onto first thing in the morning. The Rare Earth Rug can be worked from handspun yarn, as here, or with commercially available yarns in natural shades of browns, greys and off-whites. The wonderfully gentle gradations of colour are achieved by working with two strands of yarn in ever-changing combinations.

NB: A pattern for a set of co-ordinating cushions, the Rare Earth Cushions, is available separately.
