TARZ BEDC OVERS The bedcoverings in this collection represent a pairing of Moroccan traditions. The cotton panels draw on the weaving done for centuries to create haik—a traditional, long rectangular woman’s garment that wraps and drapes around the body. Our blankets, woven on pedal looms in the town of Ouazzane, mimic the weave and coloration of the haik, while the individual panels of the blankets are then bound by varying embroidery (tarz) stitches, in both traditional and modernized renditions. With a textured, ribbed weave achieved by spinning seven individual cotton threads together, the blankets have a soft, organic heft.
