Geometric all-wool block twill coverlet made by an unidentified weaver.
This geometric coverlet was woven in two panels, which are joined by a center seam. It has self-fringe on the sides and no fringe on the top and bottom edges, which are hemmed. The block twill (turned twill) weave structure combines red, green, and dark blue wool in both the warp and the weft. The pattern has four blocks and requires a 16-shaft loom.Context
