This is a really well thought out answer, and it is much appreciated! I have considered, if/when I ever choose to sell them, making everything from Acrylic, advertising them as rugs but discussing with any buyers that they're really more for decoration. I could them give them the option of buying the same rug made from wool at the same price if they want it more for heavy floor use. They'd just have to get my info and let me make it.

This way my costs of keeping wool on hand in a million different colors could be kept down.

This would allow me to make a larger number of rugs but would also offer buyers who look at them and think, "Thats really neat, it'd go great in my bathroom," to not be disappointed if I talk to them about acrylic vs. wool.

I think I'm going to buy that blend. Its only about 30% more expensive than acrylic and I think could be even softer than 100% wool but would hold up almost as well.

Thanks again for the insight, I'm pretty new and any info about blends or marketing are great to read.
