<p>[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 403231, member: 8267"]Wow. That is completely different than we thought, and unexpected. I am not sure how to describe the technique used in the flat areas (what we thought was unfinished canvas). The weaver is carrying/floating multiple threads behind the ground weave, pulling them up when wanted. The improved close-ups also seem to show that the red is tufted/pile. Back to the books for awhile on this one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
