- WOOL_AND_FELT_RUGS_FROM_INDIA
All Sukhi rug makers are adults. They are also Indian artisans who receive a fair wage. Rug making in India is serious business. Many makers also play a part in raising and sheering sheep. Some handle vegetal dye as well. These skills are passed down from one generation to the next. Yet, children are never involved in the process. They only observe and learn.
We love this question. Yes, we do have several tips. We can’t say enough about the importance of the source materials. Sukhi uses only the highest quality materials to make our rugs. We adore things like bamboo silk. We often use the finest wool from New Zealand. A second factor to consider is a rug’s knot count. Look for a higher knot count. This will mean the quality of the rug is higher. Here’s a third essential factor. Be sure to always go handmade. Machine made rugs are rarely high quality. Yes, you may find machine made rugs to be less expensive. But they simply won’t last like handmade rugs. Always go with a handmade rug without exception! Then your chances of having a high-quality rug will go up.

Sukhi artisans use an excellent dying process. The materials are also superb. Before we make the yarn into a rug, we wash it several times. It is also washed multiple times after the rug is completed. This entire process secures color in the best way possible. That’s why our colors do not run or fade.
