Rugs are made of essentially three
types of threads; the warp, weft and pile. The warp is wrapped on
the loom and is the foundation thread of a rug.
The weft is inserted sensuously
across the width of the loom, perpendicular or at right angles
to the warp, and after each row of knots to hold them in place. It
binds all the threads into a cohesive structure. |
