Hand-knotted rugs with a sheared pile will shed some at first. Minimize shedding by using a low setting when vacuuming. Always use the standard floorhead and avoid rotating brushes. Use a low power setting when vacuuming the edges. • Rotate Often & Avoid Direct Sunlight: Occasionally rotate your rug to reduce wear and tear and help prevent fading. This is especially important if the rug is placed in a sunlit area. • Handle Loose Yarns: It can be common for stray or loose yarn to pop up on your rug over time. Do not pull it; simply trim the longer yarn with scissors until it's even with the rug pile. • Clean Spills Immediately: Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry white cloth or towel; do not rub. For spot cleaning, use a dye-free, gentle detergent solution mixed with cold water. Rinse and blot quickly to dry with a clean towel. • Use Furniture Pads: Place furniture pads under heavy pieces to help prevent flattening and preserve the rug's pile. • Add a Rug Pad: Use a rug pad underneath your rug to help prevent slipping and stretching and to add comfort underfoot. • Professional Cleaning: Annual professional cleaning is recommended to help keep your rug looking its best.
