About the Craft - Carpet making in Kashmir is pure art and the quality depends upon the number of knots used in its making. The process of wrapping yarn around the warp to form a pile is known as knotting. A hand knotted carpet is made purely by hand using either wool or Silk or a blend of both. A single carpet takes atleast six months and can extent up to two years. Kashmir Carpet making is also unique in the sense that every single carpet is knotted based on a design visualized by a designer and its corresponding Talim; a coded script consisting of precise instructions to be strictly followed by the weaver while knotting the carpet. This coded script is a weaver’s technical language. The practice of Talim is a unique method of manufacturing carpets and is distinct to the Kashmir region.
