Carpet is a textile most often used as a floor covering but
is also used as decorative wall hangings and for fashion items such as bags and purses.
The main knot types used for hand knotted carpet are ghiordes, senneh and jufti.
The two main types of machine made woven carpet are the Axminster type and the Wilton type. Both of these names are both the brand names of the firms that originally
developed each method of manufacture and also used as the generic term for each given process.
