Nomad Collection

 

For 24 st. machines. Punchcard diagrams are exact size (Japanese machines).

This collection brings together the traditional shapes and burnt colours of the carpets and textiles of the desert peoples of the Americas and the east. There is a traditional intricate fairisle design, "desert weave", a bold pineapple cone design, and ikat, kelim and durry inspired designs. There are brocade-like designs featuring the familiar pomegranate tree motif and Egytian floral, a small foral "desert bloom" and the fireburst design which featured on the front cover of the 2007 Calendar on the left. There is one double jacquard template.
