These remnants are put together to preserve the good parts of the original rugs, resulting in a unique patchwork design. The rug is made by village weavers in Lahore, Pakistan, using traditional techniques. As a handmade product, the size may vary by up to 3-4 inches from the advertised size. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will help maintain the rug's beauty for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women from Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. Buying this rug helps create more jobs for female weavers who otherwise would not have the opportunity to do so. The local farming community also benefits from wool sales, and local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs.
