Another Yomud stripe with vine in which serrations take the place of latch-hooks is shown in Plate [L], Fig. 7. Pendent from the vine are other hooks shaped like frets.
Very similar to an old Caucasian stripe is the one represented in Plate [L], Fig. 8; but in this stripe the small designs are drawn so that the proportion of length to width is greater; and it is probable that they were copied from a wreath of leaves. This stripe is very commonly seen in Beluchistans.

Plate [L], Fig. 9 represents a mechanically drawn vine found in Beshires.
Well-known Afghan stripes are shown in Plate [L], Figs. 10 and 11.
In Plate [L], Figs. 12 and 13 are two of the most typical and interesting stripes of Samarkands and Yarkands. The first is supposed to represent the sacred mountain of Chinese lore rising out of the waves. The second is a vine with leaves and flowers, which suggest Persian influences.
A stripe with simple archaic pattern peculiar to Yarkands is seen in Plate [L], Fig. 14.
