About this rug

Blossom on dark twigs laid in rows on the sand, counted. Khamsa is five in Arabic, and this checkered Berber round rug is counted too: square tufts in rows, a dash between each pair. Weavers once counted it out from memory. Zarbish knots it now.

The squares and their dashes are gathered into one diamond, and the diamond's points stop well short of the rim, so a clear margin of open ground runs all the way around. Inside the diamond the dashes join square to square along both diagonals.

The story

How we made Khamsa

Blossom on dark twigs laid in rows on the sand, counted. Khamsa is five in Arabic, and this checkered Berber round rug is counted too: square tufts in rows, a dash between each pair. Weavers once counted it out from memory. Zarbish knots it now.
