flat weave
Tightly interlaced textile
A flat weave is a type of textile—typically a rug or tapestry—made by interlacing warp and weft threads without knotting, producing a thin, reversible fabric with no pile.
Kilims and dhurries are flat weaves.
The technique creates geometric patterns and results in lighter, more flexible pieces than knotted rugs: a flat weave rug for the kitchen.
