Daydreamer Rug

Textile, Fabric, Textures, Patterns and Cloth Design Daydreamer Rug by Begum Karadag Daydreamer is a hand-woven floor rug. Four traditional hand weaving techniques are combined in Daydreamer: the Anatolian knot, Cicim weaving, twill weaving and shuttle traditional towel weaving. The Cicim and twill combination forms the Karacakilavuz weaving technique, which carries a geographical indication. Sun, moon and star motifs float within geometric shapes. Three woven pieces are made on traditional oak looms and joined asymmetrically with a knitted wool chain. A cotton lining covers the back, and the fringes are attached by hand. Production takes about two months.
