Impulse buy (sort of)

I saw this rug earlier in the week on the 'In the Raw Fleeces' facebook page and liked the look of it - it's Merlin-coloured and hand made in pure British wool. They are hosting an on-line craft show this weekend 'Woolly Wonderland Craft Show' so I had another look this morning - still liked it - and decided to buy it. Wow, was that quick! Paid for it by bank transfer at about noon - and it was delivered to me at 5.30! It just happened that the seller is fairly local and her son even more so and was visiting her this afternoon! It really is lovely but I must try to keep Merlin and Mystic off it because of the hairs and Sprite away because he will chew the tassels - It is going in my study which is the only room they do not have free access to. It really is lovely - it's 2ftx4ft excluding the tassels.
Just spotted Sprite in the corner of the pic - already heading for those tassels!
