Best Beige Background

I always resorted to dark backgrounds for primitive rugs because light backgrounds lacked character or were impossible to find. Since I discovered this process, I’ve fallen in love with light backgrounds.

I treat “BBB” like a sourdough starter. When I am ready to hook another rug with this background, I simply add in whatever I had left over from the last rug. Nothing goes to waste.

Try the process yourself with your own wool using these instructions on how to marry wool.

This wool is unprocessed. A recipe with complete instructions will be provided with each bundle. All you need is dish soap and vinegar. Six (6) pieces of different wools, each 1/4 yard, make up the 1-1/2 yard bundle. The wools included vary based on availability. Your cut strips will be 36" long speeding up the tedious process of hooking backgrounds.

Price: $40.00

I tried the cooking of the background colors I purchased from you. At first I was very skeptical. It just didn’t seem to be doing anything. Now that the wool has been washed and dried I am really impressed. It worked well. I did a few blues that I had here and was very happy with that result also. I will use this technique often! Thanks so much!
