“Kilim” is a Turkish word designating the technique of flat weaving (or tapestry). This carpet manufacturing technique is different from that of knotted stitches (velvet appearance), the result is more flexible and light.
Just as resistant as knotted stitch rugs, Kilims are rugs in their own right, made to be placed on the floor, and not just on the walls.
The technique involves the structure of patterns, which are mainly geometric - typical Kelim designs. Nomads do not follow a given design or pattern. They tied according to their memory and personal taste.
The result is a wide variety of designs and colors which only depend on the individual taste and tradition of the weavers. An advantage of the Slit Kelim technique is that you can use it flat on both sides.
