The majority of the weavers are women who live in villages in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. Rug weaving provides them with the opportunity to earn a livelihood, while local farmers benefit from wool sales and local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for use in designs. The handcrafted touch of artisan skills creates variations in color, size, and design that make each piece truly one-of-a-kind.
