Carpet Weavers in India


The wool yarn is wrapped, knotted & cut in one quick motion.


Naturally dyed yarns from Ibyx goats, sheep and silk worms are used in the carpets.


Dyed skeins are wound into sausage-shaped balls.


The finished carpet is washed with water & salt then left out in the sun to dry for up to 2 weeks.
