plaid (blanket to keep yourself warm) or måtte (to place on the floor)
en plaid (pluran plaider, plaiderne)
- this is used in Danish for a rug that you wrap around yourself like a blanket
En måtte (måtter, måtterne)
-- this is a small "carpet" placed under a table, by a bed etc. on the floor, or like a hearthrug by the fire.

Birthe is right: I think 'løst tæppe' is probably more common on the floor.
But 'plaid' is the 'rug' used as a blanket.
