What is a Turkish knot?
There are two main types of knots used in all handmade carpet production: The Turkish Knot, also known as the Gördes knot or double knot and the Persian Knot, also known as the Senneh knot or single knot. The Turkish knot is symmetrical. The knots that form the pile of the carpet wrap around two separate warps and come together between these two warps.
