Description
Ready to go! This complete Norwegian rya rug kit titled “Gullregn” was designed by Aasgerd Lie. It is available as a kit for you to make in two sizes: 60 x 110 cm (or 23.5″ x 43.3″) and 80 x 120 cm (31″ x 47″). The 80 x 120 backing is currently out-of-stock. The smaller backing is available with a Swedish-woven backing while the norwegian backings are not available.
It’s name conjures up the Golden Rain tree.
The yarn is virgin wool from the Spaelsau sheep in Norway coarse and resilient. The backing is woven of heavy wool and linen in the traditional manner.
You make the knots with a needle threaded with two strands of rya yarn (ryegarn). I make it easy for you by starting the first row for you and adding detailed instructions which I translated from Norwegian to English. I also am available to give advice through the process if you need it.
The Kit includes everything you need:
Needles
Ruler (kavel) for keep loop length consistent
Hemmed and bound woven backing
Yarn required plus a little extra for wiggle room
graph
color threading card prepared by me
Instructions translated from Norwegian by me.
In the comments, tell me if you are right- or left-handed and I’ll start the first few knots for you!
