what is the difference between hand woven and hand knotted rugs?
Hand-knotted rugs are thousands or millions of knots individually tied to a foundation. ... Hand-woven rugs are often referred to as “flatweaves” because they're, well, flat. They are woven more like a basket, which means the front and the back look the same, making the rug reversible. They have no pile or actual “knots.”
