Wool & Cotton Rugs
Blending cotton softness with wool structure, our collection of wool and cotton rugs offers a more relaxed feel compared 100% wool rugs, with all the benefits of natural materials. Whether flatwoven or hand-knotted, these wool cotton rugs combine the durability of wool with the increased breathability of cotton-ideal for lighter layering, casual spaces, and warmer climates.
While 100% wool rugs are known for their bounce and density, a wool cotton blend rug tends to be slightly lighter in weight and texture. Cotton softens the feel underfoot, adds flexibility in construction, and can create a more subtle drape in flatweaves or low pile styles.
What Makes a Wool Cotton Rug Unique?
Key advantages of wool blend rugs include:
-
Lighter feel-great for layering or warmer spaces
-
Natural breathability from cotton fibers
-
Easier to fold, move, or reposition
-
Still hand-knotted or flatwoven & never mass produced
- Wool in the fiber blend allows for an even stronger natural dye hold over time
Where Wool & Cotton Rugs Work Best
Because of their lighter construction and flexible drape, wool blend rugs are perfect for more refined spaces and layered styling.
Living Rooms
A wool cotton rug adds natural texture without overwhelming the room. Especially great for warmer climates or if you want something less dense underfoot.
Bedrooms & Nurseries
The cotton content makes these rugs feel a touch softer and cozier for bare feet. Wool cotton blend rugs are also easier to shift or tuck under furniture.
Kitchens & Entryways
Look for flatwoven wool cotton blend rugs that will hold up to foot traffic. A rug pad would be best to keep in place since they are a bit lighter.
Layered Spaces
Cotton's softness makes these rugs ideal base layers for stacked rug looks. They drape well over jute or under vintage wool pile rugs for contrast.
Color & Style Options
Our wool blend collection spans muted palettes and natural textures-perfect for earthy or minimalist interiors. You'll find creamy neutrals, dusty pastels, and soft geometrics woven by both Moroccan and Turkish artisans.
Frequently Asked Questions About Wool Blend Rugs
Are wool blend rugs durable?

Are wool cotton rugs good for layering?
