Chain stitch rugs can be called the affordable rugs. They are much less expensive than the pure silk or wool carpets and equally beautiful. They vary in sizes and shapes and can be used as floor coverings, wall hangings, sofa throws or corner mats. Chainstitch embroidery is done using a crochet rather than a needle. It uses wool or artsilk thread for embroidery which is thicker than the cotton or silk thread used in needlework. Accordingly crochet embroidery or chainstitch embroidery has a greater surface area per stitch than needlework, covering a much larger area in the same amount of time. The crochet is locally referred to as "Aari".
Continuous stitches ( giving the name chain-stitch ) are used to cover the entire surface of the fabric, the figures or motifs are worked in striking colors, the background mostly in a single color.Chainstitch rugs can be used either as area rugs or wall hangings and are available in floral, kelim, bird/ animal and modern designs.
