Tromso Rug
|
|
There is nothing quite so warming on a cold winter’s day as stepping onto a soft, thick rug first thing in the morning, especially if you have wooden floors in your house.
The Tromso Rug is reversible and features a strongly textured surface for a dynamic effect. The stitch pattern is easily-memorised and the rug is worked in a bulky wool yarn so knits up quickly. The pattern includes instructions for three different sizes so you can make a variety of new rugs for the kitchen, the TV room or to have by your favourite chair so you can knit in comfort. .
