Hindi term or phrase: Dhurrie

I'm not sure htis word is in hindi. It is supposed to mean "blanket", but the text I'm translating says: Dhurrie means "blanket" in Hindu.

As far as I know, there isn't such language, so I was wondering if that is an Hindi word.

Thank you.

Hindi word

Explanation:
This certainly is a hindi word, but it's rather a very thick sheet (usually made of cotton) used as a bedding or as a mat on the floor, than a blanket.
