Cheap, eco-friendly, hand-knotted, vegetable dye hemp rugs.

If you're in dire need of a new floor toupee, but don't have a lot of cash to throw at the problem, you might want to check out these hemp rugs on Overstock.com. They're beyond reasonably priced, eco-friendly and (I think) quite stunning -- even if you don't have those fabulous floors. (Sigh.)




Fashion meets sustainability in this Green Collection of eco-friendly original designs hand-knotted of 100 percent high-quality hemp and jute pile on a cotton warp and weft.  All-organic, with exquisitely fine jute pile woven onto a cotton warp and weft, and an earthy natural color palette. The high quality jute chosen for this collection are biodegradable and recyclable, with an innate sheen because it is harvested only from Cannabis Sativa, a quickly renewable resource that excels in length, durability, anti-mildew and antimicrobial properties. The rugs are twice washed to soften each yarn before weaving, and then brushed to an even more lustrous sheen in a hand-knotted pile contruction to ensure a rug to be enjoyed for many years.
