One of the most important fields of research in Iran is investigation of the characteristics of the Iranian carpet designs and motifs، especially in geographical areas in which the carpet patterns are woven imaginarily. Understanding، preserving and planning for revival of the original carpet patterns can be enhanced significantly through categorization، reformation and determination of the applied proportions in these mental patterns، which have been transferred from one generation to another through continuous years. One kind of such carpets is Vist’simaginarily-woven carpet which has been woven in the central areas of Isfahan، southwest of Khansar by nomads who came from Hamedan and left nomadic life 400 years ago and decided to reside in Vist village. Forms and patterns of the imaginarily-woven carpets of Vist have been uniform and distinct from one carpet to another with only minor change during these years. In this study، local experts selected 50 Vist carpets with more than six square meter size having all the features of Vist''s patterns. They were nearly 100 years old and could be found in Vist village and the neighboring villages. Then the largest vertical and horizontal dimensions of each feature of the pattern were measured. Afterwards، different hypotheses were proposed among dimensional proportions as designing structure in Vist carpet and were tested by use of a numerical software program. Based on these findings، it was found that 16 structures were one-dimensional and these were woven imaginarily and carefully without any kind of carpet designing. The weavers of Vist carpets observed 5 determined proportions among features of Vist imaginary patterns while weaving in harmony with other characteristics in specific parts of the carpet. This study shows that other six hypotheses of researchers about proportion and determined structures among elements of imaginarily-woven carpets of Vist were not true. It is also possible to help to clarify the position of thesestructures by determining two-dimensional proportions among elements of pattern. This research presents categorized and analyzed proportions which were found for arrangement of Vist carpets.

Identifying and classification of Iranian rug motifs are the most important ways to preserve, protect and restore them.These especially about the rugs that are mentally-woven and lack texture maps are more important. The present article is a kind of field and historical research accomplished based on available historical and imagery sources aiming at clarifying the changes that have been taken place in patterns and designs of mentally-woven Vist carpet and its patterns and motifs categorization in recent century. In addition to the historical investigation based on written and unwritten sources, a field study was also conducted in Vist village and Turkish-speaking and Lori-speaking villages around Vist, to find out old carpets, take their picture and interview with the old and famous people in Khansar, Golpayegan and Isfahan market and finally by comparing the information and pictures, the changes in patterns and designs of mentallywoven Vist carpet were determined. Then, based on the obtained results, an attempt has been made to categorize and classify patterns and designs of this mentally-woven carpet. The results indicated that the patterns and designs of Vist carpet can be classified with regard to three perspectives which are forms and motif models; visual and physical nature of motifs as well as application of these motifs in the body or in the borders into three categories of plants, animals and forms or models. The plant category can be divided into single flowers, trees and flower-vases, the animal category into two subcategories of birds and animals and the last category to three subcategories of multi-angles including three, four, five, six and seven angles and forms consisting of hooks and Latches, serrated, joints, bands, panes and small sprays and branches along with the imported forms. Borders in Vist carpet can be divided into three types of two doshkumi and first and second type Garous. All these three borders have been originated from Harati structure. Six main colors in two types of dark and light in Vist carpet have been used which include pink, red, dark blue, white and brown. There are maximally seven colors which are usually used in this carpet. In borders between one and five, and in the background between five and ten motifs are used and the total number of motifs in the mentally-woven carpet does not exceed fourteen.
