Only half joking - look for estate sales in your area, old folks are leaving behind all kinds of magnificent things that their children don't care about.
Probably mostly quaint things, though. The stuff on that site is rad as hell.

worth a shot
This one on Etsy says dispatched from Canada. With that said, at that price it is not going to be artisan made….could be a reseller for all I know.
If you have a local arts society, see if they have a textile group. In my area, there is a group that has sales a few times per year (If you happen to be in Kingston, here is their link)
Finally, there is a great shop in Ottawa called Pokoloko that sells South American blankets and towels - the material is so soft and lovely. If they suit your taste, many are wall hanging worthy (although you will want to snuggle your wall)
not bad those look pretty nice
