About this Experience

Sit at a massive vertical carpet loom and learn the rhythmic process of tying knots. A master weaver will teach you how to read the 'Taleem'—the written song-like code that dictates the carpet design. You'll practice cutting the yarn, packing the knots, and discover the ancient mathematics behind some of the world's most intricate silk-on-cotton carpets.
