Tufted, Wool

Wool pile, tufted. No knot density: a tufted piece is specced by material.

The piece

How it is made: The pile is punched through a cotton backing with a tufting gun, set with latex and finished. Weeks on the frame, not months on the loom.
What it is for: Homes and commercial floors alike. It puts a large area in a chosen colour on a shorter lead time.
What to look for: The back is canvas and latex, not knots. That is a different object for a different floor at a different price, not a fault. Press the pile and read the field: a tufted ground blends colour the way paint does.

The two twists

Twist.

Twist is how tightly the wool is spun before it is tufted. It is the tufted equivalent of knot density: the second choice, after the fibre.

Wool spun at the usual turn. The pile is soft underfoot and the colour reads deep, because a looser yarn takes more dye to the surface.

Wool spun with more turns per inch. The pile stands up rather than laying over, so the surface reads matte and holds its cut line.
