shuu-shuu


Explanation:
Tatami mats are smooth (although they can tend to have little bits that can snag as they get older).

Either way, I feel that this would be a soft, barely audible sound since it's a blanket being trailed along (and blankets aren't heavy).

I think "shuu" gives the feeling of a fairly hushed, shushed sound.
