I crochet (sometimes knit) rag rugs from re-purposed fabric. I can use anything from curtains to bed sheets and pretty much everything in between. I am starting to make them for loved ones out of other loved ones clothes, the same concept of a memory quilt and putting it into a rug. If you are interested let me know!
My rugs are made to last. Although the durability will somewhat rely on what the rug is made from they are always made as strong and durable as possible.
I first got inspired by these beautiful rugs when I stumbled across a picture of one on google. Then decided I would try, at first I will admit I made about 3 rugs that were horrible. I gave up making them for a few months then I decided to try again. I really wanted to make one that had more of a pattern that suited my style. (That was the first one I sold, to my mom.) I just love the idea of making something so beautiful out of something like a old t-shirt and keeping it out of the trash.
Well that's it for now.
