That's really good to know that it make such a mess to cut them up, thanks for the advice to do it outside. <br /><br />And the rug is adorable...the first one looked fine, but this one looks great.Christina | Little Victorianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07815829032836885028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877624096544665868.post-48885474956958373812012-04-11T16:22:52.311+03:002012-04-11T16:22:52.311+03:00That looks really good!

Chain stitch is the base for all crocheting, from there it's easy to learn more.<br /><br />Ah, jersey knit, I actually thought the tricot sounded a bit dumb, I've never heard anyone in English use that word, but the dictionary I use didn't give any other alternative. Thanks for letting me know.onshorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10217237226866880177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877624096544665868.post-16217317994736674432012-04-09T20:05:28.506+03:002012-04-09T20:05:28.506+03:00I would actually consider this very easy on the di...I would actually consider this very easy on the difficulty scale. You only need to know two crochet types, the starting chain and the single crochet.<br /><br />I think here are some very good directions on basics of crocheting.<br />http://cache.lionbrand.com/cgi-bin/faq-search.cgi?store=/stores/eyarn&learnToCrochet=1<br />You'll only need to learn the steps 3,4,7 and 8 for making this type of rug.

I am very impressed you made this out of old T shirts. (FYI-- T shirt fabric is known as a jersey knit. I'm sure "tricot"--which, to me, is French for "knit"--is the term a translator/dictionary gave you?)Alana in Canadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08440969357242099169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877624096544665868.post-50973441338252573632012-04-09T17:35:58.351+03:002012-04-09T17:35:58.351+03:00What a great project.

Question, would this be considered more of an "adavanced" crochet project?

I wish i could crochet, the weave on your rug looks so good, im going to have a go at a braided rug next week made from old wool blankets, maybe i'll give crochet a crack if my briaded one turns out ok xMaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18387407423793099797noreply@blogger.com
