T-Shirt Rug

I just finished my first t-shirt yarn project. See    t-yarn  entry.  So here's my rug made in a simple single crochet.  I used about 9 or 10 t-shirts and it measures about 18"x30".



It's kind of bright, but I like bright things.  The little yellow bits you see in the first red part are bits of Sponge Bob, who once decorated that t-shirt.


I'm going to try another couple of rugs, one in stripes and one in granny squares, and maybe a circular one.


Good night, sleep tight.

How nice! You did a great job. I have also seen that blog posting on the T-yarn and it reminded me of those little looms that you make potholders with out of those loops. I had one when I was a kid. Well, I have just recently attempted to learn crocheting (again) and this really sparked my interest. I definitely want to try making and using the Tyarn.


Thanks for posting the photo, it's great.
