Black Cherry

Here is the rug so far!  

 

It's using up an incredible amount of wool, which is a good thing because I have so much that needs to be used up.  I decided to start with the diagonal stripes to remind myself of the pattern.  After this rug, I want to make one with zigzags.  I haven't decided the colors of the zigzag rug yet, but it will probably be just as neat!

Won't this be flashy?  It will spruce up any room nicely!
