Afghan Vegetable (chobi) dye rugs Woven by talented Afghan weavers in ancient method, made of fine natural handspun wool and vegetable /natural dye; finely woven on organic cotton foundation. This is one of Pamir collection rug that is produced by Noori Co. in Kabul Afghanistan. For over a decade Pamir imports and designs its own fine line of rugs from Afghanistan.

This particular rug is designed based on a prehistoric rug with adjusted color combination and design correction to fit today's market. This is a newly made rug with beauty, texture and value of an antique rug without imperfection that are associated with antique rugs. Cotton foundation (warp) is used to prevent shrinkage during or after washing, handspun wool "weft" is used to increase longevity in the life of this rug. This rug is also prewashed to even out colors and preclude color-bleeding after its use.
Hand-spun wool is wool that has been manually spun into yarn using a spinning wheel or a drop spindle. The process of hand-spinning wool involves twisting fibers together to create a continuous strand of yarn that can be used for weaving, knitting, or crocheting.
Hand-spun wool is often considered to be of higher quality than commercially produced wool because it is made using traditional methods and provides a unique, one-of-a-kind product. The process of hand-spinning also allows the spinner to have greater control over the thickness and texture of the yarn, resulting in a more durable and aesthetically pleasing product.
In addition, hand-spun wool is often made from high-quality wool fibers, such as merino or alpaca, which provide a soft and luxurious feel. The hand-spinning process also allows for a wider range of natural colors, as the wool is not subjected to the harsh chemicals and dyes used in commercial production.
Overall, hand-spun wool is a unique and high-quality material that provides a connection to traditional methods and offers a unique, one-of-a-kind product.
Vegetable dyed rugs are made by using natural dyes derived from plants, fruits, vegetables, and other organic materials. Here's the process of making a vegetable dyed rug:
1. Fiber preparation: The first step is to prepare the fiber for dyeing. This typically involves washing and cleaning the fibers to remove any dirt or impurities.
2. Dye extraction: The next step is to extract the dye from the natural materials. This is done by boiling the plant matter in water to extract the color. The resulting dye bath is then filtered and adjusted to the desired strength and color.
3. Dyeing the fibers: The fibers are then submerged in the dye bath and left to soak for several hours or overnight. The length of time that the fibers are left in the dye bath will determine the final color of the rug.
4. Rinsing and drying: Once the fibers have been dyed, they are then rinsed thoroughly to remove any excess dye. They are then dried in the sun or using another method, such as air-drying or using a dryer.
5. Weaving: After the fibers have been dyed and dried, they are then woven into a rug using traditional weaving techniques. This process typically involves knotting the fibers around a warp (vertical) and weft (horizontal) to create the rug's pile.
The final result is a beautifully colored rug made using natural, environmentally friendly dyes that have not caused any harm to the environment.

Some Basic Facts about Caucasian Rugs

  1. All Caucasian rugs are made with the Turkish or Giordes knot
  2. "Kazak" carpets are not from Kazakstan (which is on the other side of the Caspian Sea) - but are from an area in what is now Armenia.
  3. The colors of older Caucasian Rugs are mostly made from natural materials found in the respective tribal regions.
  4. Most older Caucasian rugs are "all wool" - not only the knotted pile, but the warp and weft threads are usually made from hand spun woolen yarn or goat hair However, one can sometimes find older carpets (and more frequently in some newer examples) with cotton warps and wefts
  5. Warp threads can be made of un-dyed light yarn in one area, and dark or mixed in another. Goat hair is also seen for the warp threads, but never for the pile.
  6. Weft threads can be different colors: rusty red/brown, blue or white.
  7. The number and colors of selvages often can be an identifier to the area of origin
