I Crocheted a Rag Rug!



Brenna has her own room now. As I am trying to get ideas for decorating I love to look at Pottary Barn and The Land of Nod magazines. I wanted a large round rug to brighten up her room. But money is tight and a rug is not my priority. Then I saw a very creative friend who had croched a rag rug for her boys room. So cute! "I can do that" I thought. So, I commenced getting the material torn into long lenths and planning my color scheme. I worked like a mad woman for 4 days and then it was done! I used no pattern as you can see. I am not much for crochet and it was by trial and error that my rug lays pretty flat. It is so cute and for only about $30 in supplies I have a 5 foot round rug. I have to say I am proud.
