Braided Rugs 
 
Rugs made from strips of yarn or fabric that have been braided into thick ropes which are then sewn into almost any size or shape to create a reversible rug.  The traditional way is braiding one long, continuous braid and then wrapping it around itself in a spiral and lacing it together, the more contemporary technique is braiding each row separately and then joining the ends together with a technique called “”butting.”  ”
