Names to look for
The district governor’s guide names kilims woven by women at weaving centres in Sındı and Eski Datça, and local cloth charms called Çığlı-Çaputlu. These names can help you ask for a full-size rug, a smaller woven piece or a particular charm.
Meeting a weaver
Seeing a piece in a shop and visiting a working loom need different arrangements. Ask for the maker’s name and weaving location, then check whether visitors are received. Measure and weigh larger pieces before arranging transport.
