Kolyai Rugs use the Hamadan
Rug Weave
Single weft is called "Sennah
Baft" or Hamadan
weave. Here the wefts
are rigid and the warps
are sinuous. As you can see in the sketch the wefts
are heavier than the warps.
It is woven with symmetrical knots. Since there is only one shot of
weft between each row of knots this shows every other warp which makes
these rugs easy to spot.
