Description

"How to Make Rugs" by Candace Wheeler is a guidebook on rug making written in the early 20th century. The book serves as a practical manual for individuals interested in the craft of weaving rugs, detailing techniques related to materials, weaving methods, dyeing, and the artistic possibilities available through home industries. The opening of the book introduces the concept of domestic manufacturing, emphasizing the importance and potential for women in rural areas to engage in rug making as both a form of artistic expression and a source of income. It discusses the value of home industries, particularly in the context of American society, where traditional crafts have declined. Wheeler explores historical reasons for the reduction of such crafts and sets the stage for the importance of re-establishing rug weaving as a meaningful pursuit that can enrich both family life and local economies.
