Often these are also known as flat weaves. A Kilim is woven not knotted. They take less time to make than a hand-knotted piece of a similar size. It is for this reason that Kilims are so reasonably priced. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Afghan Kilim short runner was handwoven by traditional methods. The colour and pattern of the runner was created by the weaver using colourful weft threads. The wefts are woven in blocks of colour which creates the pattern. Where two colours meet, there is often a small gap in the weave where the next colour block is woven from the adjacent warp thread. This technique is known as \"slit weaving\", and is probably the most common Kilim weaving method. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eYou'll be amazed to find out that...\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Multicolour Afghan Kilim short runner is a one-of-a-kind rug!
