Story Behind the Art: Chainstitch rugs are a distinctive form of embroidered textile most closely linked to the Kashmir region of India. Unlike most rugs, which are woven or hand-knotted, chainstitch pieces are created by stitching loops of wool yarn onto a base fabric—typically cotton or jute—using a hooked needle. The needle forms a continuous line of interlocking loops across the surface, building a design that sits on top of the foundation rather than being constructed through traditional weaving. This technique allows for exceptional detail, shading, and flowing linework, making chainstitch rugs especially well-suited to curving patterns, elaborate florals, and even pictorial scenes that would be difficult to achieve with knotted pile alone. The finished rug has a smooth, densely embroidered face with a texture and visual character that’s entirely its own—rich, expressive, and unmistakably crafted by hand.
