A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation. A giant basket weave pattern employing bars and squares in dark brown neatly fills the field and is framed by a colorful zig zag and oblique line order. The border tends to recede, and the bold pattern moves up and out. Similar basket weave patterns appear on antique quilts.
