Great detail, I would try using a less direct flash to reduce the white glare coming off of the carpet and your thumb. Also, try burning the upper left corner so that it doesn't disappear like that.
I like the high-contrast/saturation. Choosing to include the fingers actually "feeling" the texture helps to make the photo very vivid... I am surprised I haven't seen more like this. Beyond this, the actual subject seems a bit dull- but I can't penalize you much for that.. 6
Quite good, in that blown-out highlights kind of mood. the blating of that finger like that does also serve to concentrate the eye on the wool, which is a neat trick. Nice sense of the wiriness of the wool too.

+ Yeah there is texture present but
- the photo isn't very appealing in any way. The thumb is overexposed, your nails are dirty ;) and the subject can't hold my interest for very long.
Way over exposed and with little bits of stuff in the whatever the red stuff is, not terribly attractive... Oh and after the Scents challenge I've been waiting to say, 'You need to clean your nails!'

The lighting is too harsh, the hands too dirty (maybe that was intentional...?). I see the texture, but the subject and composition just don't hold my interest.
I think the image could benefit more without the fingers (or your goal is to show scale use of a different object), particularly due to burn highlights on them. Good luck.
