This picture taken in the twilight of an early morning is of a large 8x10 tufted, wool rug, probably purchased at Pottery Barn. The owner of this wool rug called me one day to ask if I knew how to shrink a rug back into form once it had a stretch in the middle. I answered of course in the affirmative because part of knowing how to do rugs right involves knowing how to do them wrong.
This rug was involved in a flood in a home and the contractor that cleaned up the water took it to his garage and put a few 5 gallon buckets underneath it to get it off the ground in order to dry it. Well in the meantime, the wool rug had stretched in a few places as you can see in the photo above.
