Palas (woven rugs)
Palas are rugs made of goat or yak hair by Pamiris. The technique and design are very simplistic and a good reminder of days gone by. The thread is hand spun by men, most often while walking or chatting outside. These rugs are very durable.
 
Quality: Yak hair is rougher and more durable than goat hair.
Weight: 3kg per square meter
