Written By : RugKnots  |  

It is a well-known fact that one of the best investments you can make when it comes to home decor is wool blend rugs. They’re highly durable, soft in touch, absolutely stunning and what not! Wool is, without any questions, one of the best materials to be utilized in rugs. However, quite a lot of customers have shown their vexation over the price of wool rugs. And to an extent, we agree too. Wool Rugs are quite expensive and to be fair, can become hard to maintain. Just recently, designers have reintroduced ‘wool blend rugs’ to help customers overcome this feeling. Wool blend rugs are a combination of either a synthetic, or a natural material that is blended with wool. Generally, the wool content in wool blend rugs is higher than the other material that is being utilized. Most of the time, wool blend rugs consist of 80% wool and 20% synthetic fiber. Although that is not always the case. These rugs have been specifically designed to give customers a similar feeling of 100% wool rugs that are out of their budget. And to our surprise, they do actually fulfill their purpose! One thing that I specifically love about wool blend rugs is that the material that is combined with wool either adds on to the existing qualities of wool or brings something new to offer. To explain it better, here’s an example. It is well known that all wool rugs go through the natural process of shedding. However, mixing wool with synthetic material decreases the amount of shedding that it naturally goes through. To find out more, keep reading ahead for an in-depth guide on wool blend rugs.

Types Of Wool Blend Rugs

Wool is combined with different kinds of materials that are both synthetic and natural, as mentioned above.

Nylon Blend Rugs

These rugs have a higher percentage of wool in them than nylon. This blend is usually available in contemporary designs. Since nylon is considerably cheaper than wool, this combination might fall within your budget and you can still enjoy a wool rug.

Acrylic Blend Rugs

Acrylic is a synthetic material that is less costly than wool but still has the same feel to it. Acrylic is not as popular as it once was and has not been used much in rugs too. However, it is most commonly utilized in wool blend area rugs because of its wool-like qualities. So if you’re looking for a rug that has a similar wool feel to it, then you should definitely go for wool and acrylic blend rugs!

Polyester Blend Rugs

Wool and Polyester blend rugs are ideal for people who long for wool rugs without its high price tag. Both of them are great rug materials and since polyester is an inexpensive material, the rug doesn’t cost much in comparison with pure wool rugs. These rugs are even available in beautiful and intricate traditional designs. However, wool and polyester blend rugs aren’t as durable compared to wool rugs.

Polypropylene Blend Rugs

These rugs are quite similar to wool and polyester blend rugs. Polypropylene is a synthetic material that is quite commonly used in rugs. It is very easy to clean and maintain since it's highly stain resistant. This makes it a great material to be combined with wool as it adds on to the already existing qualities of wool and makes the rug stronger. Polypropylene is incredibly durable like wool too yet it’s inexpensive at the same time!

Silk Blend Rugs

Until now, we’ve only talked about synthetic materials. However, silk is a natural fiber, just like wool. As you know wool is made out of the coats of sheep, silk is made by silkworms. Silk is an incredibly soft material that looks shiny to the eye and is luxurious in touch. Silk is durable even though it’s a delicate material, unlike viscose. Wool and silk make an excellent combination. Usually, the base consists of wool fibers, while the pattern on the surface of the rug is made from silk. This makes the rug stand out in comparison with other wool-blend rugs. However, unlike the afore-mentioned materials, silk is a natural fiber which is costly which is why wool and silk-blend rugs can be expensive.

Durable Wool Blend Rugs

Before we discuss whether wool and viscose blend rugs are durable or not, it’s necessary to first know what viscose actually is. To start, Viscose itself is a man-made soft material that does not trap in heat and is generally cool in touch. Viscose is a material that can be easily dyed in a variety of colors. It is noted for its real silk-like characteristics and can even impersonate the look and surface of wool, cotton and even linen! Viscose itself, however, is a very delicate fiber that sheds easily when placed in high traffic areas. Or even in busy households with pets, visitors or small children. Viscose is not a suitable material for rugs. In fact, interior designers refrain from using viscose in rugs. Its strands tend to break easily which is why viscose is usually utilized in rugs by mixing it with wool. By combining the two materials, it brings out the best of both materials.  Viscose and wool blend area rugs are made by combining the material with wool and sometimes with cotton, to create a better, more durable rug. It is sometimes combined with chenille, however, it isn’t considered to be as durable as viscose wool blend rugs.

What Are Braided Wool Blend Rugs?

Braided rugs were originally made around 120 years ago. These rugs are hand-made using strips of fabric of different materials such as cotton, yarn, wool, sisal, jute, etc. These rugs come in all shapes and sizes and are even available in a variety of hues. Because of their chic style, they tend to fit in every room and can even be used as wall hangings! Braided rugs are easy to make and can even be crafted by you at your home! Interior designers have recently introduced wool-blend braided area rugs and we are absolutely in love with it! One of my personal favorites is braided jute-wool blend rugs. These rugs are themselves unique and adding them to your room will create a distinct and one of a kind space! Braided wool-blend rugs are easy to maintain and clean too. Most of them can easily be machine washed. In other cases, you can use the same methods that are used for cleaning other rugs.  For me, round-shaped braided wool blend rugs look great in entryways. They instantly create a welcoming and homely feel which is why they look great as Entryway Rugs

Buying Guide

Wool blend rugs light up and add to the aesthetic of the room. But there are several factors you should take into account before buying one. These include the correct size, the appropriate color and how much of your room you want to fill. We’ve attached a list of factors to give you an idea of what wool blend rug is right for your space.

Size

The size of a rug that you choose depends on the dimensions of space you’re adding one into. For example, if your room is rectangular shaped, we recommend you to add in a rectangular-shaped rug. Or if your room is in an abstract shape, you can add in multiple and different shaped rugs.

Design And Color

Wool rugs are the most common rugs with the most diverse colors & designs. Whether you want your rug to be in floral patterns or geometrical patterns, this factor is totally up to you. Although, as a general rule of thumb, you should consider the other patterns and colors present in the space where you desire to place your rug in. For instance, if you have a busy wallpaper or wall art, you might want to consider buying a rug in a neutrally patterned or a block colored rug that would bring the whole look of the room together. Wool and polypropylene blend rugs are easily available in neutral patterns and shades.  Or if you have a simple and minimalistic room, you can add a rug in a rich texture and color. The type of pattern you want your rug to be in depends on your taste. Consider adding wool and silk blended rugs as they tend to make the room pop because of how they are constructed. When it comes to choosing the correct color, you shouldn’t only take into account your preference but also the color scheme of your room and where you’re placing it. The color of the rug should coordinate with the color pallets of the room. If you end up choosing a color that goes with your liking but doesn't go with the aesthetic of the room, your space will end up looking absolutely horrible! You need to be clear about what certain rug colors will go with the colors in your room. When choosing a wool blend rug for your living room, make sure that you choose in a lively and bright color because your living room should feel welcoming and comfortable.

Cleaning And Maintenance

Some people consider rugs as an investment rather than just a decorative element in your space. To ensure that your precious wool blend rugs stay for a long time, cleaning and maintaining your rugs daily is an absolute necessity. Cleaning your rug elongates its life and is certainly something you should never compromise on. 

Cleaning And Maintenance

BUY NOW

Vacuum

To start, you should vacuum your rug on a day to day basis. Make sure to use a vacuum cleaner that lacks the beater bar feature. Even though beater bars are great for removing dirt that is deeply embedded in the fibers, this feature is only suitable for synthetic materials. If used on wool, it can cause the material to shed further and can damage its fibers.

Deep Cleaning

When it comes to maintaining wool blend area rugs, it depends on what material is combined with wool in the respective rug. Different materials have different methods of cleaning. Some materials might be delicate. For example, cleaning wool and viscose blend rugs is quite different from cleaning wool and polypropylene blend rugs. However, this is not always the case. Some steps as follows: 

      • Vacuum the rug regularly
      • Clean spills immediately. This is important in order to minimize damage caused by moisture being trapped on the fibers and affecting them over time. Furthermore, it does not allow dirt to enter deeper into the cloth and causes discoloration or mold growth that might be difficult to clean later.
      • Spot cleaning with a water-based cleaner
      • For heavily soiled areas, use a rug shampoo or dry cleaning solution.
      • Regularly check for any unusual smells, and if detected the problem area should be treated immediately with a fire retardant to avoid starting an unwanted fire!
      • Inspect your rugs after every six months in order to weed out problems that might have been caused by the rug’s exposure to low temperatures, sunlight or moisture.
      • In order to increase durability and prolong its life-span, keep it in a dry place away from direct sources of light like window sills.
      • The color fastness of wool will be affected if there are any traces of food stains on your carpet, so if you have a rug with food stains it is best to avoid using hot water and detergents.
      • If the rugs are carpet or sitting on top of wood flooring, then make sure that there's no area where threadbare spots are visible by keeping an eye out for any signs of wear.

As discussed above, viscose is a delicate material that has fibers that can easily break. This is why cleaning and maintaining wool and viscose blend rugs can be tricky.Wool itself is easy to clean. However, when combined with viscose, it can become a menace to clean if you’re not sure on how to properly maintain it.  When cleaning your wool and viscose blend rug, make sure to dilute the solution you’re using. For instance, if you’re using a basic soap/ detergent and water mix, make sure to keep the water content high. While cleaning the dirt, do not scrub your rugs. As this will easily damage the delicate fibers of your rug. Always make sure to blot the surface of the rug when cleaning. This rule should be applied while cleaning any kind of rug you have, not only wool and viscose blend rugs. When cleaning your rugs, make sure you don’t put your wool blend rug under direct sunlight as the  colors of the right might fade. You can use a heater or blower instead. Some people prefer to dry clean their wool-viscose rugs instead.

If you have multiple kids in the house, you must know what a menace it can be to keep the place clean. With marker stains, paint spills and what not present everywhere. And kids love to play around on the plush, soft rugs which can be quite distressing at times. Well, you don’t have to worry. For cleaning any marker stains that are visible on your rug, you’ll need a carpet cleaner, a clean cloth, and water. Since marker stains have chemicals present, they can’t be cleaned by using dish-washing soap. They need a stronger cleaning method. This is why you need a good carpet or rug cleaner. They’re easily available at any grocery shop. Start by adding the cleaner directly on the cloth. You can use a sponge too. Without the use of water, start blotting the stain. After you’ve thoroughly cleaned it, rinse the affected area with clean water to remove the cleaner that’s present in the fibers. Blot the area by using a clean dry towel to strain out excess liquid. Lastly, leave your rug as it is and let it dry.

Mud Stains

Mud stains can be tricky and hard to clean since mud stains dry quickly. To clean mud stains, start by scraping off the dried mud on your wool-blend area rug. Make sure to scrape all of it off as it can make the cleaning process much harder. If your stain is still wet, blot the area by using an old rag to soak up the mud. Do not make the mistake of rubbing the mud. This can cause the mud to spread further. Start by creating a mixture of dishwashing soap or detergent and water. This time, keep the water content the same as the dishwashing soap or detergent. Blot the area by using the mixture the same way you’ve been told to up till now. To check if you’ve taken the mud thoroughly out, use another clean wet towel and gently press it against the affected area. If it comes out clean, your rug is now clean! For drying, leave your rug as it is.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wool Rugs

1. What Is A Wool Blend Rug?

A wool blend rug is made from materials such as cotton, polyester, and rayon - typically with an acrylic backing for durability! Wool adds softness to the mix that you won't get in other fibers like cotton or polyester.

2. Are Wool Blend Rugs Worth It?

A wool blend rug will be more expensive than a cotton one, but the benefits are worth it. Wool is durable and soft to touch - so you'll get years of use out of your new rug! Plus, because this type of rug has such low pile height, they're perfect for places where there's hardwood flooring without the worry of it getting scratched up. They are the perfect investment for your home.

3. What Are The Benefits Of Wool Blend Rugs?

Wool is durable and will last for years to come, so you won't need a new rug anytime soon! Wool also has natural antibacterial properties that help prevent odor buildup - meaning these types of rugs stay fresher longer than others. If you have hardwood floors, wool blend rugs are perfect because they have low pile height and won't scratch up your flooring. Wool rugs also offer a good amount of cushioning, making them perfect for heavy foot traffic areas.

4. Are Wool Blend Rugs Perfect For The Living Room?

Absolutely! Wool blend rugs are great for any room in your home - especially the living room because they're affordable and offer a lot of styles when paired with another decor. You can place a wool rug in front of your sofa to add some interest and texture or line the perimeter around a coffee table for added warmth. It doesn't matter what style you love - wool-blend rugs are perfect!

5. Can I Use Wool Rugs For Outdoor Areas?

Wool rugs are not typically recommended for outdoor use because they are made of natural fibers that can dry out and wear down faster than the average synthetic fiber rug. But, If you can find a rug made of wool and other natural fibers (such as cotton, jute, or seagrass), then the answer is yes. Place a wool rug where there is no exposure to sun or rain.

6. Are Wool Rugs Durable?

Wool rugs are durable because they are resistant to dirt, stains, and most household spills. They are made of natural fibers that can be sensitive to sunlight or rain exposure. Wool rug durability is high because they resist dirt and stains from spills. To keep a wool rug in good condition it needs to be vacuumed with care (avoid pulling it by the edge), periodically sprayed with a rug protector and resealed, or have wool rug pads placed underneath for extra protection. Wool rugs are the most durable and natural of all rug types.

7. Are Wool Rugs Better Than Synthetic Rugs?

A wool rug is more durable than many synthetic rugs. Synthetic fibers are not as tough or long-lasting because they don't resist stains and dirt like natural materials do, but they're easier to clean and less prone to shrinking over time. However, there's a trade-off, the downside of synthetics is that it can be a problem if the rug is left in one place for too long and it collects dirt. So, If you want to buy a rug for a specific spot in your house, it's best to get something synthetic. However, wool blends are becoming increasingly popular because they offer the natural benefits of wool while also offering more resilience against stains and dirt than many synthetics. They're less likely to shrink over time like some synthetics too! This rug style is perfect if you have pets or kids.

8. What Are The Pros And Cons Of Having A Wool Blend Rug?

Wool blend rugs have both pros and cons - just like any rug made from a natural material. One of the biggest pros is that they are resistant to stains and dirt, so this means that you won't have to worry about bringing out your vacuum cleaner as often! However, one con might be if you're looking for something with a more modern look - wool blends can get rid of their bright colors over time. Wool blend rugs are a great way to create some warmth and comfort in your home. But, they are very vulnerable to fading colors and scratches, so they may not be the best choice for a room where someone is constantly walking.

9. How To Clean A Wool Rug?

Cleaning a wool rug is a lot like cleaning any other type of rug. First, vacuum the rug to get rid of the dust and dirt particles that might be stuck in its fibers. Then use warm water mixed with dish detergent (or some other gentle cleaner) and clean it by hand or using a carpet scrubber. You can also use a liquid or gel-type rug cleaner, but make sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions. After cleaning it, vacuum the wool rug thoroughly again and let it dry before rolling it up for storage. The next time you want to use your wool blend rug just unroll and give it a quick shake outside first so that any dirt particles are removed. This technique will also get rid of the "new rug smell" and freshen up your wool blend rug.

10. Are Wool Rugs Better Than Other Rugs?

Yes! Wool rugs are better than other rugs like shag rugs, cotton rugs, sisal rugs, silk rugs, flat-weave rugs, hand-tufted wool rugs, woven rugs, custom rugs, braided rugs, Polyester Rugs, and other natural fiber rugs. Wool rugs are considered better because the rug construction of a wool rug is designed to be less likely to develop "pills" or fuzzies. It is a good quality rug that gives a soft underfoot rug for people who live with allergies. They are naturally stain-resistant and are hand-woven with perfection.

11. How Often Should I Vacuum My Wool Rug?

Every two weeks you should vacuum your wool rug with a soft-bristled brush attachment and the suction on low so as not to damage it or pull out any fibers. Vacuuming will also pick the dirt and dirt from the wool rug, but it is important to know that over-vacuuming can damage a wool rug. If your rug has liquid stains, it is important to blot them with a wet or damp cloth before vacuuming.

12. Are Wool Hand-Knotted Rugs Perfect For High Traffic Areas?

Wool Hand-Knotted Rugs are perfect for high-traffic areas, as they can withstand the wear and tear from people walking on them. They have soft underfoot, yet are durable and easy to vacuum. You can place gorgeous wool power-loomed rugs in your high traffic areas like hallways or entryways.

13. Does Wool Blend Rug Shed?

Some wool blends do have a tendency to shed in the beginning but this will go away after about six months of use. The shedding is called “breaking in” and it is a sign that the rug will be softer for your feet. You can use rug pads or a rug's backing to help with the shedding.

14. Can I Place A Wool Blend Rug Over My Hardwood Floor?

Yes! You can place a wool blend rug over your hardwood floor. Wool blend carpets are not heavy and will be easy to install on top of the wood floors. They are made for this type of use so you don't have to worry about damaging your flooring. You can place a wool rug in your dining room area, bedroom, living room, or even in your bathroom.

15. Can I Place A Rug Pad Under My Rug?

Yes! A silk rug, wool rug, cotton rug, shag rug, or even a synthetic rug can be placed on top of a pad. You may want to place a natural fiber rug over an artificial one, but it is not necessary. However, if you have hardwood floors then we suggest using a wool or cotton carpet as they will be softer for your feet and help with the shedding process. A wool-woven rug under a rug pad is the best way to go.

16. Does Wool Come Under The Category Of Antique Rugs?

No. Wool is not an antique textile type, but it does come from sheep (and sometimes other animals!). An antique rug would be made of a more natural material like silk or cotton.

If that is the case, there’s nothing for you to worry about! You can easily get your favorite rugs from RugKnots. Other than that, we offer great services.
