Dear Marla,
Please get a look at this picture of the bottom of a Karapinar Ilme Tulu rug.
After a wide balanced plain weave ground the warps make a loop around a thick goat hair cord.
It looks like a "Heading cord" but I think it isn't because it seems that only a part of the warps are used in this process
Any comments?
Many thanks
