Goat-hair rugs and covers, woven of goat-hair wool, are used for bedspreads, especially in the mountain regions. They are in one colour or in multi-coloured stripes. The region of the Rhodopes is famous for its multi-colored goat-hair textiles. Tufted textiles (kitenitsi) were used in the Bulgarian home for bedding and then for seat coverings. They are woven out of yarn or tufts of wool, unicolored, of strip design or a combination of field and wrap in contrasting colors.
