Founded in 1997, The Rug Company has endeavoured to create the most desirable rugs in the world. Combining the ancient craft of rug making with the creative brilliance of some of today’s most talented designers. The CABLE KNIT design by Thom Browne takes its inspiration from the understated utility of a classic Aran jumper; it evokes the traditional knit pattern, which transitions perfectly into a rug using the same materials as the original, only updated and reworked for a modern audience. The deceptively simple rug has been hand-carved, with the design effectively engraved into the rug, requiring exceptional weaving skills and a new technique developed by The Rug Company’s weavers in Nepal.
