They are made on portable wooden looms typically with wool pulled from the tribe's sheep each year. They obtain their dyes naturally from local vegetables, flowers, tree bark, minerals, and insects. Graphs, or blueprints for the patterns, are used more often today but true masters create signature designs and color combinations showing their skill. The rug quality is also determined by the number of knots per square inch ranging from 30 to 600 knots. The more knots, the tighter the weave, creating a longer lasting and much more detailed rug.
