The hooked technique utilizes strips of recycled fabric, creating a durable and highly textured surface ideal for domestic settings.

Its dimensions classify it as a small scatter size rugs, making it perfectly suited for transitional spaces, entryways, or as an accent piece beside a hearth or chair.
