THE BASICS
Tone On Tone — Rugs created via interesting textures executed in only one color.
Cut And Loop — Two yarn systems (one with cut ends, one with looped ends) are mixed to create beautiful contrasting textures.
Striae — Fibers organized in a subtle striated fashion for creating sophisticated texture, depth, and a dynamic illusion of movement
Ombre — The gradual blending of one color to another.
Pencil Carving — Delicately shearing between colors at a contour to create a more modeled look (upcharge applies).
