The Formula: (vertical count) x (horizontal count) x2 x 100 = Points Per Square Meter

Take your ruler and count the points running 10 centimeters across and 10 down on the back of your rug. Make sure you start from the same point for both measurements.

Take these two numbers and multiply them. Then take this number and multiply it by 2. Multiply that number by 100 to get the total number of points in one square meter. For this rug see our formula below:

32 (vertical count) x 35 (horizontal count) x 2 x 100 = 224,000 Points Per Square Meter
