I've heard there are different types of rugs, but I don't know what the differences are.

There are many different types of rugs available today. The most common types are area rugs, runners, and shag rugs. Area rugs typically measure 4-6 feet in length and 2-3 feet in width, while runners are generally shorter than that. Shag rugs have a unique texture that is created by using a loom to weave together multiple strands of yarn. Each strand creates a different pattern when viewed from a distance.
