    Thank you. I suspected Chimayo but it has little square woven holes in it, and I couldn't find any examples of Chimayo with such woven holes. :-(

    Flat weave Kilim

    Collector's weekly

    I already narrowed it down to a kilim (a reversible flat weave rug with fringe and slit stitches), from Turkey, the Middle East, or Central Asia.

    I have some rugs I need that guy to look at! ^^^^^^^

    Welcome Rick.
    I'm with scouts, a flat weave kilim. Turkish Anatolian slitweave in this case.
    The one on Collector's Weekly is also Anatolian.
    Anatolia is the main part of Asian Turkey. Different towns and regions in Anatolia have different styles, but I don't know enough about them to narrow the origin of yours down any further.

    Here is some info on kilim weaving techniques:
