Care and Repair of Rugs and Carpets

This book shows how to repair fringes and kelim ends, how to repile, reweave, patch and mend tears and splits, and even how to deal with a rug that has been damaged beyond normal repair. A final section covers stain removal cleaning and daily maintenance. Clean and concise instructions, photographs and step-by-step drawings make the sometimes daunting task of mending a valuable rug not only possible but also enjoyable.
