Weaving Carpets

INDIA, JAIPUR: Young Indian craftsman working with a pattern and wool yarns on a loom to make hand-knotted rugs in Jaipur, Rajasthan, famous for its carpets. The carpets woven here copy the designs found chiefly in the rugs of eastern and middle Persia. They nearly always present the cypress-tree, and also many animal forms, laid upon ground of dark red, blue or ivory white. The borders have a swaying-vine pattern, with the customary floral adjuncts.
