I will discuss your requirements, design and colour scheme before dyeing the yarn and weaving the rug.  The ultimate in sustainability as only linen warps and British yarn are used.  I am working on sourcing the linen from the UK as well.  The dyes used are mostly grown in my garden and rain water is used throughout the processing.

You can go further by allowing me to hand spin the yarn from my small flock of blade shorn Portland sheep or fleeces from other Dorset sheep.  This will take sometime though, as in the pre-industrial world, you needed 8 people to prep the fibre for 1 spinner and 8 spinners for 1 weaver.  Therefore it takes 64 times longer for the yarn to be prepared as it does to weave.  Yes I prepare fibre and spin every day without fail!
