Flat weave rugs are rugs which are woven on a loom, rather than knotted. Some well known examples of rugs made in the flat weave style include Aubussons, kilims, sumaks, needlepoint, and tapestry rugs. Many stores which stock rugs and throws carry flat weave rugs, and it is also possible to order them directly from rug producers; several nations have encouraged the growth of rug cooperatives, groups of artisans who preserve traditional crafts such as flat weave rugs.
