Handmade Kilim Wool Rug

Kilims are known as 'pile-less' rugs; the design is also known as slit-weave. These beautiful designs are achieved by interweaving the various colors of the vertical and horizontal strands of the rug. It can be used as a hanging piece or as a floor covering. Master World-stock weavers in Afghanistan have managed to replicate this pattern. The families do the entire process of shearing, washing, and dyeing of the wool and weaving of the rugs within their own compound.
