  • Would you believe us if we told you this is just one of two books, each 145 pages long, containing the weaving instructions for a single rug (in this case, @alaebtekar's)? Ala's design required 552,960 knots (!!!), and was woven by three weavers -- Shehad Yasir, Shan Yasmin, and Mohammad Qasim -- in Jaipur, Punjab, Pakistan. Thanks to @alrugcom for sharing this behind-the-scenes perspective. #ArtAbouPlace #Sanctuary
