Produce a braided rug from roving!  This is one of those "why didn't I think of that?" ideas.  It's all laid out for you here.  The authors have made hundreds of rugs and mats and are quite knowledgeable about the process. 

To make a rug from roving you'll need no special equipment or supplies, all you need to know is how to braid and use a needle.  You'll find detailed illustrations with instructions on how to do it all.

The book tells how to select top-quality wool by look, sound and feel, plus how to wash, and blend wool.  Some wools are better suited to braiding.  The authors discuss characteristics of suitable breeds according to texture, inclination to felt and softness.
