Each contains the same designs, alternating in some instances, matched in others to create long continuous lines.

Other designs include red or black lines in a variety of thicknesses, and several diamond shapes motifs. Nearer the edges the majority of design is short lines made of black dots on a white ground, along with stripes in red, black and white. A single patch of blue sits close to one end.
