Old Sheet Rag Rug – WIP Wednesday


by M. J. Joachim
Well once I got started…

Pile of old sheets


Torn into strips

Chain stitched by hand (no hook needed)


Add new strips like so

Fold over to secure

Make one very long chain using multiple sheets

Begin with one end

Wrap to form center of rug

Spiral to shape rug

Use short sheet strips to tie rug together

Steam rug to relax stitches

I simply had to finish it!
Until next time, happy crocheting everyone!
