I hope they say something about the knitted wall rugs! The book I have says they were first made in the late 16th century in the area now known as Germany (near Bavaria, I think), and they were the size of afghans with multicolor flowers and figures and mottoes knitted in, like woven tapestries but done in knitting. =Tamar |

Returned to Europe and 20 years later Commisioned 2 wonderffyl Tapetries that showed scenes from his travel to the Holy Land. He compared the scenes in the tapestries to actual maps drawn around the same time. Alas he wasn`t very knowledgeable, about the actual weaving of Tapestries, which was a great pity. he also showed 2 slides of 2 tapetries portaying the commisioner ruler and his brother . The Actual 2 Tapestries [ one of which is in the Munchin Museum, are in fact WONDERFUL . And i am now going to look up at more information about them. The Cartographic side of his Lecture the MANY many Maps of `Holy land, pilgrimages, stories from the Biblical times are numerous and very interesting to see and read about. mirjam |

Tamar as you see/read nothing was said about other Tapestries, but i remembered that i have some info in another book ,,,wait i will festch it .... Richard Rutt , in his book A history of knitting , on page 90 has a chapter [2pages] called KNITTED CARPETS. The Illustraeted History of TEXTILES , mentions knitted carpets on pages 149-150 . mirjam |
