Turkotek's Attribution Guides
We hope to eventually have attribution guides describing the basic characteristics of the main weaving groups featured on the site. These guides will serve beginning collectors as learning tools, and provide advanced collectors with a single place for assembling the information and insights found in multiple sources.
R. John Howe was kind and energetic enough to prepare a very fine guide to Salor weaving. John's pages include the highlights of an e-mail exchange with Murray Eiland. Thanks, John!
These guides are still very far from being comprehensive, and almost surely include some inaccuracies. In order to expand them and bring them up to date, we welcome your input and suggestions, and earnestly solicit volunteers to contribute to this part of TurkoTek. By working together constructively we can make this a useful resource for beginners and advanced collectors.
