Thank you for this simple, clear tutorial. I could follow and immediately start making my rug.❤
Lovely!
These videos are so helpful. I plan to make 2 round rugs and a long rectangular rug and join them together to make an ottoman.
That's a great idea, enjoy making it!
I love this technique! Going to try it tonight. Thank you so much! Also - your nail polish is so pretty.
Thank you! As for nail polish, I'm glad of the times I get using any, so often I'm too lazy 😆
Great explanation with patience thanks
Thank you!
You are an excellent teacher! ❤️ thank you for the video ❤️
Thank you, great to hear!
I know im asking randomly but does anyone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly lost my password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Dawson Crosby Instablaster =)
@Saul Layton i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and im in the hacking process atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Saul Layton It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much, you really help me out :D
Your tutorials are very clear. Have always wanted to learn how to do this. Thank you! 😊
Que bom que te achei, estava querendo fazer um tapete retangular mas só achava redondo, muito obrigada
Thank you! I also have a video for a round one if you prefer that czcams.com/video/ZLP2cLJyMts/video.html
Super idea for my door mat thanks a lot.
Thank you so much! I want to make a rug from fabric scraps and want to use a method that doesn't involve building a weaving frame. Huge plus, that your method works for baskets too.
I love this! I have been looking for ways to incorporate fabric into crochet and knitting - thanks for sharing!
Great, happy to hear it is useful for you :)

This os fantastic, thank you very much for such amazing idea ❤❤❤❤
Most welcome 😊
Good idea .
How amazing! I've been trying to no avail to find a rug for my vanity, now with your video, I can make my own and use up a couple old t-shirts.
How wide a strip of shirt should I cut? 1/2" ?
It depends on how heavy you want the rug to be and how thick the material is. I would cut on qverage 2-3 cm, a bit less or more than an inch.
@@TuulaMaaria thank you so much. I do want a thicker rug so your reply is great advice. Going to subscribe to your channel now 👍😁
Bellísimo! Gracias

Just great 🤩! I'll definitely try this one out. Can I use different types of t-shirt yarn or will it look weird if they aren't the same weight? BTW, I love how your nails match the crochet yarn!
If you use different weights it can be hard to get an even result. It's better to put two thinner yarns together.

Thank you! 💜
Thank you for this tutorial 😊❣️ Started crocheting table mats with this technique and using macrame yarn instead of T-shirt yarn. How would you finish the ends of the macrame yarn then 🙂?
Sorry for taking this long to answer - I do try to go over comments twice or at least once a week but don't always manage to! With macrame cord it is harder to get the ends nice because you can't taper it, threads would come out. One way would be to make a clean cut at the ends, use PVC glue to harden the end and then use a few stitches to sew the end.
Grazie 👍
Thank so much for this ideas. I don't like to saw or crochet with the t-shirt yarn itself, this is a better way for me to do it.
I just have 1 questions what thickness did you cut the t-shirt yarn?
The width I cut it depends on the thickness of the fabric a bit but normally 2-3 cm wide (around 1 inch). Have fun!
@@TuulaMaaria thank you for the reply
Thank you very much for that video : about one thing i m really not sure. It's for when you turn the rug. Sometimes, you make one stitch more, sometimes you make two single crochets, sometimes not... is there a rull that i didn't get. It seems a bit random to me, maybe because i don't have the right way to look at the work. I feel that you have a instinct for it but there has to be a rull about turmimg so the work is always even...?
Yes, it is different every second time because the stitches in between the stitches of the previous row. So every second one has one close to the turn.
Я роблю обов'язку не тонкими нитками, а нитками з порізаних футболок .Він тоді більш міцніший.Дякую вам.
Can we add another colour from back side.thanx for this video 🙂👌
Yes, it doesn't matter which side you change colours!
Do you think a rug made this way would work with a 50 pound dog with claws? I’m trying to make an area rug that I can throw in the wash. Or would it be better to just crochet the t-shirt yarn itself if this gets heavy foot traffic?
You can do either. But if you use this method, it is important to use fairly wide t-shirt yarn and make sure that the other yarn is very durable.
V nycc👌👌
Hello i lové your work. I have almost finished a crochet rug for My daughter and i have a little problem the sides are not straight. Have you an idea for the next rug ?
Thank you! I wonder what causes the sides not being straight. One important thing is not to skip a stitch when you turn but have a smaller stitch at the start. At the moment don't have an idea for another rug. Have you seen the video for a round one using this same technique? czcams.com/video/ZLP2cLJyMts/video.html
Thanks a lot for your answer. I think that the next Will be with that technic. . What do you think about This yarn Milano Eco Barbante by Hoooked ?
I'm so sorry I didn't answer! CZcams doesn't alert me for answers to answers, I only notice them when I scroll down to all. You have probably already made your decision. But I checked about that yarn. It is not very thick, less than half of what I was using in the example but it would work, just makes thinner rows.
Hi, excellent directions! Is it possible to use cotton strips instead of T-shirt material?
Thank you! Yes, I have done this also using strips I have cut out of old sheets and tablecloths!
Love it!!! But how do I change the yarn colour in the middle of the project and how do I finish/end the project? Sorry for the stupid question but I'm new to crochet.
If you mean the crocheting yarn, you just leave the old one and start a different one in the next stitch, then weave the yarn ends in afterwards. If you meant the t-shirt yarn, you cut the ends tapered in and set them on top of each other and continue crocheting normally.
At the end of the project just stop crocheting and finish the ends by passing them into the fabric you just made.
Hope this helps, enjoy crocheting! It is always lovely to hear someone has started to crochet 😊
@@TuulaMaaria Ah! That makes sense. Thank you for the reply! Your channel is awesome!!
Love this video ! Is there a machine that can do this?
Thank you! I haven't heard that there is a machine but maybe there is somewhere.
too much open holes,won't protect from spills eg placemat or rug, how to do with lest open holes?
If that is necessary, then it would be better to select something different. For me this is more than tight enough.
I love it. Can we wash it in the machine?
That depends on the material you have used. But in most cases, yes. If the rug is very big, then need to be careful that it doesn't get too heavy when it's wet.
❤❤❤
Can u use wool ?
You can use wool for the yarn you crochet with. Or you can also use very chunky yarn instead of t-shirt yarn.
👏👏👍😍😍😍
Supsr we bhi upar
