Woven cloth, which is the base of the rug, is made using two sets of intersecting threads a warp which is kept taut on the loom and the weft which is thrown through the warp threads usually with a shuttle. Here, the pile height is determined by the thickness of rods. There is possibility of limited design patterns of handloom carpets only (having cut-pile, loop-pile or a combination of both). After weaving is complete, a backing is attached to the rug using synthetic latex material which gives strength to the handloom carpet and prevents unravelling.
