March 16th, 2023
  1. Hand-knotted rugs: These are made by knotting individual strands of yarn onto the rug’s foundation, creating a dense and durable rug.
  2. Hand-tufted rugs: These are made by using a handheld tufting gun to push yarn through a fabric backing, creating a pile that is then glued or stitched in place.
  3. Flatweave rugs: These are made by weaving the warp and weft threads together to create a flat surface with no pile. Examples include Kilims and Dhurries.
  4. Hooked rugs: These are made by pulling loops of yarn through a fabric backing using a hook, creating a textured and durable rug.
  5. Needlepoint rugs: These are made by stitching yarn through a canvas backing using a needle, creating a dense and detailed design.
  6. Soumak rugs: These are made by weaving a weft over and under a series of warp threads to create a flat, reversible rug with a detailed design.
  7. Braid rugs: These are made by braiding strips of fabric or yarn together, creating a durable and textured rug.
