Wool Runner Rug

How do I repair pulled loops on a wool rug?

My cat kneads the wool rug runner and has pulled loops up. The loops are not broken, but I know they shouldn't be cut. On a wool sweater, a knitting needle can be used to push the pulled loops to the other side, but the rug is more densely woven with a mesh backing. How do I push the loops back through? Or is there an alternative to repairing this? Thanks!

If you have a loop here and there. Just a few. On a tight rug you can just snip off the high part. If its lots of loops or a bunch in one area you do the same as a sweater. Use a knitting needle to fix. Once your are done, put Elmer's glue on the back to seal in the wool.

Antique Middle Eastern Persian style wool runner rug carpet



What is the best type of carpet to use on unfinished stairs that have 2 balusters (spindles) per stair?

What is the best type of carpet to use on unfinished stairs that have 2 balusters (spindles) per stair? I have a berber runner on the stairs now but the sides look terrible. I am considering pile carpet but am afraid it will look strange next to the berber installed upstairs. I am at my wits end and need these stairs looking good with the least investment possible. The previous owners had wall to wall pile carpet by the way. I was going to put a fancy carpet up the stairs that is a thick wool carpet like a rug but the carpet installers say it can't be done and still look good.

I think I understand your question and what you need to do.....
if you are talking about a runner which leaves a few inches on each side of the steps you need to get the carpet cut and then have a carpet company bind the edges.....
lot of company's do that and makes it look 10000% better than leaving it bare........
ask around and that way the berber would work fine............
