A trendy variety of the rag rug in Colonial times was the delightful rug style called the braided area rug. The more well-known hand hooked rugs have pictorial quality, which the braided rug lacks, and so they do not appeal to the imagination in the same way. The soft surfaces to walk on, the warmth thanks to the thickness of the style, and the durability of braided area rugs is what makes them interesting.
Housewives in Colonial times spun yarn, wove cloth and made their family’s clothing. Clothes no longer fit for wear were recycled into quilts and braided area rugs. These rugs are distinctively American. Mills all through the Northeast traded bits and pieces of cloth by the pound to cater to an enormous revival in interest in rug making in the mid 1900’s. “Waste not, want not” is well demonstrated in the rugs made by no-nonsense New Englanders even today.
Braided style rugs are one of three kinds of traditional rugs that have
continued to be well known – the other two are hooked rugs and loom woven
rugs. RugsUSA.com
