What you will do
You sit at an upright loom next to a weaver and learn the Berber knot — one knot, tied the same way every time, packed down with a comb every few rows.
Other crafts
Three hours at a real loom. You learn one knot, repeat it a few hundred times, and understand why the rugs cost what they cost.

You sit at an upright loom next to a weaver and learn the Berber knot — one knot, tied the same way every time, packed down with a comb every few rows.
Per person. Wool and loom time included. You keep the panel.
Before you start, your teacher goes through the symbols in a finished rug with you: what the diamonds mean, what the zigzag borders are for, and which marks identify the village a rug came from. This is the part most visitors remember.
You weave a small panel and take it with you. It will be uneven. Everyone's first one is. You also leave knowing why a full-size rug takes months of work, which changes how the carpet shops look on the way home.
