What is a rug knot? And what is a pile rug? Actually, carpets and rugs with piles have knots between their warp and weft structure. A knot of any kind is usually tied on a pair of warp yarn (in some regions in Iran, people also tie knots with two pairs of warps). After weavers knotted a row of a rug pattern on warps, they put one or two yarns of weft on them and beat on them to make them firm. In Persian handmade rugs, two main types of knots are used: 1_Symmetric or Turkish knot 2_ Asymmetric or Persian knot Symmetrical knots are tied by passing the yarn between two adjacent warps, bringing it back under one, making a collar with both, and then pulling it through the middle so that both ends emerge between the warps. Though symmetrical knots seem stronger, asymmetrical knots are used for more delicate and soft rugs with higher density and knots placed closely near each other. One side of a Persian knot is securely knotted around a warp, and the other half is left loose.
