It is rare to find a rug that was made by the Shakers..especially one in perfect unused or hardly used condition. Shakers were the only people who used knitted or crocheted foundations for the creation of their rag or hooked rugs. One could use this rug on the floor or hang it on a wall for a wonderful piece of true hand folk art. The creator’s authenticity of this rug is proven by the backing. Wool knit and other fabrics.
