All the variants are shaded in a escalating colour scale. In nature there is no such thing as a uniform colour, its always changing depending on light, shadow and density.

Some wear, slightly dirty, minor stains. The ends have minor damages, damaged fringes, most of them are missing.

Judith Johansson har beskrivit bakgrunden till mönstret som följande: Färgstämningen när majdagen övergår till "blå timmen" i lövsprickningens tid vid utsikspunkten söder om Knäred.
Matta med mönstret har varit utställd bl.a. i Stockholm på NK 1972 och 1974, på Hallands Museum 1985 och Forum Kulturcentrum Peine Tyskland 1993."
