Material and Make

New Zealand wool, dyed to your palette.

Each knot is tied by hand around the warp, one at a time, then trimmed level. It is the slowest way to make a rug and the most durable: fine detail, a dense pile, and a rug built to outlast the room it was made for.

Octagon Link is hand-knotted to order in Jubi’s Bhadohi studio. Its 100% New Zealand wool is dyed to the palette you choose, then the finished rug is bound and checked by hand before it ships.

Pattern Scale in a Geometric Rug: What Changes as the Rug Grows

A repeating lattice like Octagon Link is the easiest kind of pattern to size, because nothing in it has to be the right size for the room. The octagons stay the same size whether the rug is a hallway runner or a 12 by 15 under a sectional; what changes is the count. A small rug shows a few rows and reads as a tile panel. A large one shows dozens and reads as a floor, closer to tile than to motif. If you want the pattern to feel calm in a big room, keep the ground and octagon close in tone and let the line carry the geometry.

Hand-knotting in our Bhadohi studio is what makes the fine line possible at any size. Each knot is tied by hand into a dense, low pile, so a line one knot wide stays crisp from one end of the rug to the other instead of blurring as the field grows. The construction also gives the surface a firm, even hand that suits entries and dining rooms.

Octagon Link sits within our Geometric Rugs and Hand-Knotted Rugs, and in the Customizable Rugs collection you can set its custom colors for ground, octagon, and line, then enter the exact dimensions and shape. Every rug is knotted to the numbers you enter.
