Will PET Yarn Really Hold Up to Weather on an Outdoor Patio?
Yes -- 100% PET yarn is UV-stabilized at the fiber level, so it resists fading even when the rug sits in dappled sun under a patio cover. The synthetic construction sheds moisture instead of absorbing it, which prevents mold and mildew from forming in humid summer air or after a storm blows rain onto the deck. That same synthetic structure makes the rug impervious to rot, so you're not dealing with the musty smell natural-fiber rugs develop outdoors. PET is essentially recycled polyester engineered for weather exposure -- it won't break down the way cotton or jute will when left outside.How Do You Clean a Flat-Weave Outdoor Rug?
Hose it off. The 0.4-inch flat weave drains instantly, so you can spray the rug with a garden hose, scrub any muddy spots with a soft brush and mild dish soap, then prop it in the sun to dry in an hour or two. There's no thick pile to hold water, and PET dries fast because it doesn't absorb moisture. At the end of the season, give it a full rinse, let it dry completely in the sun, then roll it up for winter storage in a dry garage or shed -- make sure it's bone-dry before you store it, or you'll get a musty smell even in synthetic fiber.Where Does a Hand-Woven Teal Rug Work Best Outdoors?
Under a dining table on a covered patio, where you want color but need something that shrugs off spilled drinks and wet feet. The teal tone pairs well with the neutral tones in most [outdoor patio furniture](/collections/outdoor-accent-chairs) -- teak, powder-coated aluminum, resin wicker all read calmer next to the punch of teal. The 8 ft. x 10 ft. size fits a four-chair dining set with 24 inches of rug showing past the chair legs when they're pulled out; the 9 ft. x 12 ft. option gives you room for six chairs or a larger lounge grouping. You can also use it in a three-season porch or sunroom where you want an [outdoor rug](/collections/outdoor-rug) that bridges to your indoor space -- pair it with [weather-resistant wall art](/collections/outdoor-wall-art) and [outdoor accessories](/collections/outdoor-accessories) to tie the look together. Use a non-slip underlay so the rug doesn't shift on smooth concrete or composite decking.Frequently Asked Questions
- Can an outdoor rug get wet?
- Yes -- UV-stabilized PET yarn sheds water and dries quickly, so rain or a hose-down won't hurt it as long as it dries fully before you roll it up.
- Will the teal color fade in direct sun?
- It's UV-stabilized for covered outdoor use, so it resists fading under a patio roof or pergola; full sun all day every day will fade any rug over time, so a covered placement is best.
- Can this stay outside all year?
- It's built for covered outdoor spaces, not year-round exposure to snow and ice -- roll it up dry and store it indoors over winter to keep the fibers and fringe in good shape.
- How do I keep the fringed edges from unraveling?
- The hand-finished fringe is secured during weaving, but check the ends once a season and trim any loose threads so they don't pull further.
- What size do I need for a six-chair dining set?
- The 9 ft. x 12 ft. option gives you 30-36 inches of clearance around a six-chair table, which is enough space for chairs to pull out without catching on the edge.
- Does this rug ship assembled or rolled?
- It ships rolled with free curbside delivery to the continental USA; no assembly required -- just unroll it, let it flatten for a day, and you're done.
