Guest Picks: Top 20 Flat-Weave Rugs
These 20 favorite flat-weave rugs in different patterns and colors match any style
I live in a loft in Brooklyn, a recent transplant to Greenpoint (love my neighborhood!). I work as a freelance writer, blogger, stylist, gilder, and crafter. I curate a daily personal lifestyle blog called the Haystack Needle (http://www.thehaystackneedleonline.com). I'm also one half of the shop Cabin 7 (http://www.shopcabin7.com) — a collection of gilded objects for the home. I started out in magazines, working in the home department of Real Simple magazine and later worked as the home editor of Redbook. I love to scout cool finds for the home — everything from an amazing loveseat to a green laundry detergent that really works. I'm a new mama to our baby girl, Juniper, who amazes me every day with her curiosity for life and big smiles.

Flat-weave rugs may not be the softest underfoot, but these thin, durable, low-maintenance rugs are the perfect solution for some spaces. You can find flat-weave rugs in a dizzying array of colors (saturated or muted) and patterns (classic or modern). Even better, flat-weave rugs often one of the most affordable options in floor coverings. Did I mention they're often reversible?
For allergy-prone people, flat-weave rugs are a good option since dust and dander won't get embedded in thick piles, like other carpets. But they still visually define a seating group or space and add texture to a room — something you'll lack if you leave your floors threadbare. I've always been a big fan of flat-weave rugs; here are 20 options that I'm crushing on. — Jen from The Haystack Needle

This is the rug that I'd love to add to my bedroom if I had the funds in my wallet. I'm loving the color combo of pink and yellow, and the rug has a bohemian spirit that is so fun and flirty.
It's easy to see why stripes continue to be all the rage in fashion and home. There's something so classic and modern about contrasting stripes. This rug wears the pattern well.

How can you not be happy when you walk into a room and see yellow gingham? This rug satisfies my desire to add a more Scandinavian-chic style to my home.

| Rugs from ABC Carpet are more of an investment for your home. But what you get is a beauty like this 100-percent recycled silk flat-weave rug. This burst of green from their Rio Collection is inspired by the vibrant celebration of color you see throughout Carnival in Brazil. |
Sometimes I want to go bright and bold with a rug choice, but often a lovely muted rug is where I end up. That way it's easy to add pops of color in smaller ways (like pillows) that can be easily switched out.
I've always been a fan of purple. This durable cotton rug by Dash & Albert delivers a winning combo of purples, pink and orange.

I hope the ombre trend never goes away. But if it does, this rug comes in a neutral color that feels timeless.

| I'm so impressed with this design shop that creates digitally-dyed rugs using a hand-cut paper design. The result is a collection of modern, whimsical, colorful flat-weave mats. This pattern is my favorite; it reminds me of friendship bracelets from camp with their interwoven threads. |

Hello, pink. You look amazing. This pretty-in-pink rug is just one color option from the collection of over-dyed Turkish rugs. Over-dyed rugs are such a popular look now.
This rug is definitely on the pricier side of flat-weave rugs. But it's a classic pattern from the amazing collection of Madeline Weinrib. This navy-and-white beauty will never go out of style.
Maine designer Angela Adams captures the spirit of her natural setting in the patterns she creates. This is one of my favorite patterns, and you can get the look at a more affordable price than her tufted wool rugs.
There are a bunch of different colors in this striped flat-weave rug, but they all work together as a pastel color palette. This cotton rug would tie right into a room with a more casual, country style.

From a distance, this pattern and color combo may not look like much. But up close, I'm digging the rich, rusty earth tones and the simple pattern.

There's something bold and masculine about this rug. Yet the tone-on-tone blue keeps the herringbone design looking softer and quieter. I bet this rug would hide dirt well too.
This little flat-weave throw rug would be perfect in an entryway. I was surprised to find this stylish rug as a handmade piece on Etsy!

This pink chevron rug is sophisticated enough for a living room, but playful enough to work in a girl's playroom too. There's a great selection of ready-to-ship Indian dhurrie rugs from this web shop.

This Martha Stewart Collection rug is called Astronomy and features a tonal green sunburst pattern. The design is actually inspired by a mid-20th century motif that was popular in textiles.

You can't get much more traditional than a red and white striped flat-weave rug. This rug could work in many places, from a casual dining room to a sunroom.
Leave it to Urban Outfitters to design a flat-weave rug that delivers a fun, eye-catching pattern at a great price. I'll admit that I still shop in Urban Outfitters, even though it was my go-to store when I was a teenager! The brand is still a great resource for affordable decor, such as rugs that capture current trends.
This striped Scandinavian rug is just plain handsome. The thin colorful stripes would pop in a more modern-style space.
