Row 14 of Carpet

The bottom border of the small knotted pile carpet shown in the previous post is done.

Timing the weaving was informative: One row of 53 knots takes 30 - 40 minutes. The plain weaving to hold the knots in place, plus making the argatch (protective edging) takes an additional 10 - 15 minutes per row.
