This procedure is a simple description of traditional dyeing and weaving. Handmade carpet is a special kind of textile. Traditionally, wool is used as the weaving material, and cotton yarn or wool yarn is used as warps and wefts. The loom is solid and large, and the weaving process often lasts for several months. The traditional carpet weaving area in the northern hemisphere has formed the "Historic rug belt" (left), from Marrakesh in Morocco to Tianjin, China. In the history of the world for more than two thousand years, for millions of people, carpet weaving is their only artistic expression medium, which embodies the belief and wisdom of their ancestors. It is the carrier of traditional decoration and craftsmanship. Unfortunately, the traditional art of weaving carpets is slowly disappearing. |
