Kilims are woven by nomads living in the mountainous region of central Afghanistan. Kilims are flat-woven, low-pile tribal rugs that are primarily produced in Turkey, Iran, and Afghanistan. They are treasured by the locals, who wash them when they get dirty, repair them when they tear, or remake them into bags.

Although the material is wool, it has a smooth, linen-like feel. It is breathable and thin, so it's cool even in the summer. It is dyed using natural dyes made from plants and spices, so it is safer than chemical dyes and is safe for children and pets.

The same pattern can be printed on both sides, so it can be used not only as a rug, but also as a piece of furniture or as a partition. Its light weight means it can also be hung on the wall. It can be folded up small and is easy to carry, making it ideal for camping and picnics.
