What are Hand Woven rugs?

17 April 2013



Hand woven rugs are made in a similar way to hand knotted rugs but rather than tying individual knots to the warp, the woven rug is interwoven through the warp. Most hand woven rugs are made on looms that lie flat just above the ground on a frame.




The "shuttle", which can be seen in the photograph below is passed from weaver to weaver. There are many different techniques to making hand woven rugs. Hand weaving particularly suits shaggy rugs and geometric designs.
