Blankets And Traveling Rugs

Besides clothing, rug was a fabric for making blankets and wraps used as bedding or simply to keep warm—hence, the synonymous use of rug for lap robe, which refers to a blanket for the legs, lap, and feet used by a traveler.

Rugs are versatile floor coverings used in various settings, from the living room to the bedroom and even in hallways. Unlike carpets, which are typically wall-to-wall, rugs are smaller and cover specific room areas. This flexibility allows you to change the look and feel of a space without a significant overhaul.
