I made rag rugs in 1980. You could buy fabric cut a couple inches on rolls by the pound. My strips were cut with pinking shears and used a cut in the fabric to connect strips together or tied them together. I still have and use mine 42 years later and they have never frayed. I even made heart shaped rugs.

@dianepike827 Год назад

Many fewer steps than this method! I made them too.

@joane8651 Год назад

I made them back in the day, and I filed down a plastic toothbrush to make a large hook, we were a little more practical back then.

@dianeblankenship3662 Год назад

Yes the cut and slip connection was the old way, and I can one up the toothbrush. Granny and those of that day whittled their crochet hook from a hardwood stick .They also used old clothes to make the strips of fabric.

@HRHDMKYT Год назад

@@dianeblankenship3662 oh yes! I’m thinking old t-shirts would make great rag rugs (instead of this quite expensive designer quilting cotton!). Keeping fabric out of landfills is the name of the game these days!

@tinkerbell9399 Год назад

@@HRHDMKYTThat is such a good idea. Love the crochet rug, but jelly rolls are an expensive option. My Greek MIL made me one 40 years ago. It’s still going strong!

@leerobs1118 Год назад

Hi from South Africa 🇿🇦 everything here is ridiculously expensive so I made rugs (many) out of old sheets and old clothes and they are amazing, we all love them. I ripped them 😁They also wash up quickly in the machine, which I worried about before. I enjoyed it so much and am so glad I would reuse, reduce and recycle 🤯 ps I really like those colors

@vickiheath6133 Год назад

I think for learning it would be great to use batiks then you wouldn’t have to worry about right side

What a great idea!

My grandmother taught me how to crochet rag rugs from worn out fabrics when I was a young girl. My grandfather made the hook. Wish I had that hook!

One of my grandmother's crocheted rugs like this year's ago. I still have the last one she made for me, from my old jeans.

@jeanielipskey1272 Год назад

This is a great project! Years ago I made a round crochet rug (Double Crochet stitch) big enough to put under my round dining room table. I still have that rug today. It's so heavy, my cats love it and they can't destroy it! LOL Then I made a square one for my bathroom. Back then they didn't have jelly rolls so had to cut the fabric into strips, jelly rolls would make this so much easier. Thank you for the reminder how to make!

@minkademko2335 Год назад

I've recently acquired a floor loom and will be using up my fabric stash from quilting. I had already crotched some mug rugs and trivets, but the loom will make fast work of rug making. Thanks for this video!

@carolstanton7373 Год назад

Thanks, that was fun. It brought back fond memories of my mum and the many rag rugs she made out of clothes that had already been recycled. Not a scrap was ever wasted.

@virginiacollis4580 Год назад

I've made several rag rugs and even not folded any edges. Makes them more fluffy. Like those best. Made some with yarn too. I have one that's room size approximately 9x12. Nice!

@AuntDi2 Год назад

I was thinking as I was watching that my Grandma never used a biased tape maker to make rag rugs. She is making the project way more complicated than it needs to be in my opinion.

@minkademko2335 Год назад

How do you wash a crotcheted rug that size?

@sleeplessinscandia6452 Год назад

Misty is someone you’d like to hang around with. She’s so attentive and sweet. Thanks to you both. P.S……..just a suggestion……I’d sew the strips end to end using a tiny stitch (less chance of opening) before I cut it into 3rds or half…. Save a lot of time 😊

@dianepike827 Год назад

Wouldn't it be a challenge to to cut a very long strip in f you do that?

@sleeplessinscandia6452 Год назад

@@dianepike827 hmmmmmmm………. You have a point there. It’d sure be something to think about.

@darlaj Год назад

My thought exactly!

@AuntDi2 Год назад

This was being done in the 1800’s and I promise you that they weren’t using stitch markers. I remember both of my Grandma’s and a Great Aunt making them and using a safety pin. There is no need for all the ‘fluff’ being shown. My Grandma’s even tied the strips together instead of sewing and they ripped the strips to start. My Great Aunt made them with bread bags. Who else remembers that?

@lindacajigas3315 Год назад

I made mine with old grocery bags.

@minkademko2335 Год назад

Some people prefer a more upscale method for their own reasons. If the family tends to walk away with your common safety pins, stitch marker pins can be designated "off limits" to them. Buying fabric in colors you choose, opposed to using random scraps, means you can get the colors to match your phoophoo decor. You know, I've seen this done without a hook... I think it's called "finger crocheting". I prefer whatever gets the job done my way. ❤️

@jessicapoemape3067 Год назад

There’s a million ways to do any craft. They’re just showing “one” way. It’s not right or wrong. Just enjoy it as it is. ❤

@susanbaker8023 Год назад

I do remember that.

@anitathompson3477 Год назад

Thank you! this is a fun craft. I have made these with old t-shirts cut into strips and crocheted. Jelly rolls will be more colorful! Her hook is larger than I have used, that will make it easier too. I think a small "rug" in reds and greens would be perfect for my Christmas mug! Another idea might be for a hot plate on my buffet table. Nice to meet an old craft in a new way.

@dbeckman6329 Год назад

I made rag rugs with strips that you tore from old sheets, etc. They have lasted for years. I will definitely try this with my left over fabric. Thanks

@peggyreinhold886 Год назад

That's a nice project, too. A friend of mine make these rag rugs from old t-shirts and they are always so handy. For an oval add in between the sides some more double stitches and for a round one start with only three center chain stiches and add double stitches over the whole round. If you make not enough double stitches it would Form a kind of a bowl, if you make to many stitches it will be wavy. By both options you has to go back, unreval the stitches until your rug is laying flat and start again adding more or less double stitches. Hope this make sence. Have a wonderful season, greetings from Germany 😃🎅🎁

@m0ther0ne Год назад

Lovely idea. Something I may try with scrap fabric, not my £52 jelly rolls😮😂

@kathytebbett8398 Год назад

@minkademko2335 Год назад

Quilt fabric works so beautifully in a rug, though.

@dimplesforlife. Год назад

Lovely tutorial. I crochet so I understood what she was doing, but the use of an overhead camera would have been nice so that we could have seen the actual stitches while she was crocheting.

@fransak2723 Год назад

I totally agree. You cannot really see where she is inserting the crochet hook.

@lindsayschilling8707 Год назад

I can't wait to get started on a rag rug! I'm a quilter (and I crochet in the evening while watching TV with my husband). I have a ton of fabric scraps that will be put to good use. And, the beauty of these rugs are they look fabulous and last forever! Many thanks, Ladies; I'll be starting one tonight 😊 ❤️

@karenschafer2827 Год назад

I was watching Donna Jordan last night and she was sewing pairs of 10” squares together and she was sewing really fast. She reminded sewers that fast wasn’t the point! She has been sewing for 40 ish years but sewers should sew as fast or slow as they are comfortable because the process should be enjoyable not just speedy.

@traciengland5886 Год назад

Frequently, the video is sped up so the video isn’t so long. She is fun to watch.

@nancy-katharynmcgraw2669 Год назад

I have made dozens of crocheted rugs, a skill learned from my Grandmother. I find an oval works best for me.

Don’t forget in England our single and double crochets are different from the American . I use ripped up sheets to make these. If you’re very clever you can rip a sheet into one long piece of ‘yarn’ .

@fittoseejane Год назад

I made rag rugs like this in the 90’s. I bought cheap used sheets from thrift stores because I didn’t have the funds for new fabric. I sewed end to end but didn’t bother with a bias fold, I just sort of kept it rolled as I crocheted it. I have crocheted since I was a girl but just learned to read crochet patterns as a grandma. 😂 You can learn, Misty. I started knitting 8 years ago and knowing how to crochet made it easier.

I live in Oregon & took a crochet rug class from Pendleton Wool. It was wonderful but the finished rug is so thick the front door can't pass over it so I think I'll make a rag rug for it. I like the square design for a difference from oval shapes. I also agree with one commenter that I hate using a bias tape maker. Too fiddly & time consuming for me. I'm gonna use the fold method. Thx!

@vickichandler5872 Год назад

I enjoy crocheting with yarn or thread but have never tried crocheting with fabric... guess I have to try this too. I can see that because it is cotton it has to stretchiness so it will take some time to get the tension correct. But once you get that figured out it should be easy enough. Thank you for the tips along the way in your tutorial.

I am a seasoned crocheter so I know the process of crochet, but I believe from a visual standpoint it would have been really helpful to show the view with the camera behind so viewers could actually see the stitches being made. Sorry to mention this because I now it probably sounds negative but all your viewers are seeing her hands are blocking much of the view they need to see. Cute rug though.

@KristinaHoneyHavenFarm 5 месяцев назад

Is that little pop-up part on the bottom of your iron (where it pops up from the fabric when you are done putting pressure on it) a part of your iron or is it an iron accessory. I noticed your webpage said it was sold out. Also, very happy you included how to use the bias tape maker as I think I bought mine in the early 80s and never used it. Finally, I love in your intro that you show pieces of your life. A lot of sewers don't do that, but I felt it was cool and it was not too long.

It might be faster to sew the strips together first, with small stitches, and then cut them in thirds or halves.

@dianepike827 Год назад

I think that long a strip could be difficult to manage.

@minkademko2335 Год назад

You've got an idea there... You could fold the long strip over on itself a little at a time and rotary cut in folded increments. That would cut your sewing time in half AND speed up the cutting, no?

Lots of scraps left & I keep envisioning an oval rag rug beside the bed using those scraps. Maybe I can finally get it figured out.
