In the 1970s, in the central knotting centers such as Kabul and Mazar-e-sharaif, especially from prisoners in prisons in Kabul, very elaborately worked cotton kilims were made. The material used for these pieces is cotton, selected colours, a rare fine weaving technique. With our present Duri (Satranji) kilim, great importance is also attached to the pattern.

A dhurrie (also dhurri, durrie, durry or dari) is an Indian and Afghan term for a hand-woven rug or a thin flat rug, a piece of furniture. The dhurries have unique designs inspired by the state of origin such as multicolored stripes,
The concept of dhurrie is a little different from a kilim or rug as they are used not just as a floor covering but as bedding or packaging. But there the dhurries serve the same purpose as carpets or kilims.
