There are different types of hand-made area rugs: knotted, tufted, hooked, looped and flat weave. Rug construction alone does not dictate area rug quality, factors such as density, material and weave should also be considered when selecting an area rug. Hand-Knotted Area Rugs Hand knotted area rugs are woven by hand; and depending on size, construction and density, one area rug could take a year or more to complete. Hand-knotted area rugs are secured to the foundation by knotting, versus gluing, producing exceptional density and quality. Hand-Hooked Area Rugs Using a pattern and a hooking device, yarn is punched through a canvas cloth creating a looped pile. The yarns are then glued in place in lieu of knotting, and a cloth is attached to the back. Hand-Tufted Area Rugs Hand-tufted area rugs are usually created by punching yarn in a cloth that is attached to a frame, and then gluing the backs with latex after hooking the yarn. The surface loop pile is then sheared to produce a flat surface. This process creates an area rug that is very plush, generally less expensive and easier to make than hand-knotted area rugs. Machine Made Area Rugs Machine Made rugs are produced on a variety of machines including power looms, Wilton looms, Axminster looms and others. Rugs are crafted on these automated looms for specific yarn placement and weaving. A computer controls the colors woven into these rugs thus producing the final design. Rugs made by machine can often times be less expensive than rugs made by hand, but this is not always the case. There are thousands of beautiful machine made area rugs, both wool and synthetic, to best compliment your home.
