What does between the flying rags mean in the hobbit?

Ah, what a lovely question! "Between the flying rags" in The Hobbit refers to the moment when Bilbo is trying to escape the goblins in the Misty Mountains. It's a whimsical way of describing the chaos and confusion of the scene, where Bilbo is darting between the goblins' legs and cloaks, trying to find his way out. Just imagine the swirling colors and movement in that scene, like a dance of bravery and quick thinking!
