Although most Lori rugs feature floral designs, it is also quite common to see [[Geometric Deisgn|geometric]] patterns as well. They have created distinctive interpretations of the Mina Khani pattern (the design field is covered with daisies connected together with lines that form diamonds or circles in an all-over layout) and other floral patterns, occasionally using creative bird imagery and interlocking design units. The designs on Lori rugs, although varied, tend to feature all-over layouts. The fringes are often beautifully braided.
