Weaving kilims in Göreme

Women weaving kilims (a flat tapestry-woven carpet) at a carpet shop in Göreme.

I have other pictures of Cappadocia taken from 2003 to 2006 with a digital camera http://www.pbase.com/helenpb/the_wonders_of_turkeys_cappadocia , so will only post a few older ones here.

I remember when I was in Turkey, the vendors always tried to pull you in their shop to buy carpets. And they were very beautiful, but I don't like carpets on the floor. We have a smaller one against the wall.
