Good advice, all! As well, Edie Wageman may find it helpful to know that professional textile conservators do have methods of relaxing wrinkles without the use of heat. However, as a textile conservator myself, I can tell you that even after all appropriate(read “safe”) methods have been attempted, those wrinkles will likely persist, especially in a piece like a Navajo rug. In the end, it seems better to appreciate the rug with some wrinkles rather than compromise its integrity.
