A set of short dictionary entries on carpets and rugs from Knight's American Mechanical Dictionary (1876). It defines carpet types including chenille, ingrain/Kidderminster/Scotch, two-ply and triple-ingrain, Brussels-related pile and Wilton velvet-pile, Persian/Turkey, Venetian, damask, rag, and printed carpets, and also covers rugs. The entries describe how each is woven or made, with one cross-section figure of double cloth.
