Rag Rug Update
I'm having a good time and learning a few things
I'll do differently next time. It's at 20 inches across right now.
Still a ways to go.
Sure wish I had found exactly the colors I wanted,
but these will do for a learning experience and first run at it.
I'm looking forward to standing on it
with my bare feet when it's done!

Rag Rug Beginnings
Crocheted Rag Rug
(Photo from Flickr Group linked below...NOT mine)
I spent all day yesterday on a new crafty endeavor.
First, I hit several thrift stores, Goodwill, Big Lots, etc.,
searching for cheap cotton sheets to use for this project,
and then about 8 hours preparing and ripping and
rolling the sheets
you see above. Make no mistake..
.this takes hours upon hours. It isn't as quick as you'd think
just to get prepared to do the actual crocheting,
but if you go in with the mindset that this is part of the
whole process and is to be enjoyed just as much as the rest, it'll help.
I didn't find the colors I wanted, but I was looking for
cheap sheets to use for my first project.
If you have lots of money to blow on sheets,
you can be more picky about your colors,
which I may do later if it's something I really enjoy.
I got my information and inspiration in the link provided in
THIS BLOG ENTRY.

This is a thread drop stitch motif. It can be used individual or sewn together. While the tutorial is made in thread, this type of crochet is versatile and can be made with yarn, as with many crochet projects. When you see instructions for yarn, why not try out thread.
