| This pattern is no longer available in quantity like it was a couple of years ago. These rugs celebrate the Afghan victory over the Soviets (with substantial American assistance.) Rug is probably not woven in 1989, but instead celebrates the 1989 victory and the end of the war (and the beginning of the civil war). Good drawing. Nice weapons. |
| Wool: Very good worsted wool | Sheen: Nice | Handle: Strong, firm | Selvedge: 2 cord black wool |
| Fringe: The minimal fringe on this war rug consists of overhand knots. | Pile: Nice wool | Warp: Cotton | Weft: Black wool |
