Hand-Tufted Wool Rugs

Hand-Tufted Wool Rugs

Looking for a budget-friendly rug that is still made from wool and suits the warm natural colors of your Craftsman decor? We've got you covered, in a wide variety of sizes. Most of our hand-tufted rugs are 100% wool. 

Hand-tufted rugs bring a lot of life to a room. Hand-tufting allows for all kinds of beautiful patterns and shapes.

How Hand-Tufted Rugs Are Made

Hand-tufting is a time-tested process. It involves punching wool yarn through a fabric backing. Once the design is complete, the back is coated with latex and a second backing is applied to finish it. Tufting can be done with a hand-held machine or a simple tool, which shaves down the time needed to make a rug and makes hand-tufted rugs more affordable than some other options. For a rug that is knotted by hand instead, see our hand-knotted rugs.

Designs, Shapes and Sizes

Many of our hand-tufted rugs come as round rugs, ovals and squares as well as standard sizes from 2x3 up to 12x15, and some designs come as runners. You will find Southwest designs from Pendleton, Prairie designs in our exclusive Prairie Seasons hand-tufted rugs, and classic patterned and neutral rugs in blues, browns, ivory and terra cotta. The Prairie Seasons rugs are designed by Julie Leidel of The Bungalow Craft and hand-tufted in India from 100% wool. For more rugs in this
style, see our Craftsman area rugs.

Tufted Wool Rug FAQs

What is the difference between hand-tufted and hand-knotted rugs?

Hand-tufted rugs are made by punching wool yarn through a fabric backing and securing it with latex and a second backing, which is faster and usually costs less. Hand-knotted rugs are made by tying individual knots around foundation threads, which takes longer and sheds less. Both can be made from wool, and you can see each in its own collection.
Are your hand-tufted rugs 100% wool?

Every hand-tufted rug in this collection is a wool rug, and most are 100% wool. Each product page describes the fiber, so you can check before you buy.
Do hand-tufted rugs shed?

Yes, and more than hand-knotted rugs. A hand-tufted pile is made of cut yarn clusters with more loose ends, so it sheds more noticeably and for longer while it breaks in. Vacuum gently, no more than twice a month and without a beater bar, and use a rug pad. Our guide to cleaning and maintaining a wool rug explains what to expect.
Can I try a small rug before buying a larger one?

Yes. Our no-risk trade up policy lets you buy a small size, such as a 2x3, and return it at any time for full credit toward a larger rug. Our smallest rugs ship with a prepaid return label.
