I just recently...December 2023...discovered your channel and am binge watching your videos. Thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge!! I am not dyslexic but I agree that most patterns are difficult to read...tiny font, multiple steps crammed together in one paragraph, difficult to keep track of what step I am on, etc. So thank you so much for your clear directions with each step clearly defined!!
Oh Wow! What a wonderful post to wake to! Thank you for your kind words! I hope you'll share many beautiful rugs & enjoy making them as much as I do! Happy 2024 to you!
My daughter and son-in-law just bought a new house and need some rugs to go in front of their master bathroom sinks. I think this would be a great Christmas gift for them, and I'll start looking for thrift store sheets in the right colors. First, though, I'm going to try your pattern with yarn and a small hook, just to make sure I can follow it and maser it. Great video. I'm in my 70s, and you've made me feel as if EVEN I can do this!
Ohhh Kathryn, that's the best compliment anyone can give me! I can only hope the videos are helpful! Thank you!! You might also like this video!

I have one mor question. When you are done with your 12 rounds as long as you put them on the side, it will be ok? Exactly how far from the middle should i go? Thank you so much!❤@RagstoRugsbyLora
Made my first rag rug ever today following this video. Made some sheet yarn for the first time as well. Length turned out perfectly 34” but width was 17”. I am pretty sure that my first several rows were too tight. Also my sheet yarn was cut horribly uneven. Since the rug was literally free unless you count the few dollars I spent on the Q hook I’m choosing to love it despite its imperfections. It’s my first, it’s cute, and I love it. Edit to add I put my rug as my profile pic since I was unable to post it here.
Awhhh .. I love your post! A Friday day brightener! Thank you for watching & thank you for reaching out. I've been "hooked" for nearly 40 years ... hope the same will be true for you! Happy rug making, Linda!!
I also just stumbled across your channel, and boy, am I happy I did! I have been struggling with patterns and keeping up with them. I'm now on my second rug and it's going just as great as the first. Thank you for your perspective on this, it's very helpful.
You are SO welcome! Thank you for taking a minute to share how it helped! It means a LOT to me! I hope you continue to love making these rugs! SOOOOO much fun! Stay i touch, okay?
Wow! Thank you very much! It's nice to know others struggle following written directions. I used to think I was one of few. Now, I'm realizing there are MANY of us out there! Please stay in touch, okay?
You are VERY welcome! Thank you for your kind words! And I'm SO happy your rug turned out! Hope you'll make many, many more! Definitely NOT a genius - far cry from one! But what I AM is dyslexic - the pattern I wrote was one that I could understand. Patterns & recipes have always been a challenge for me. And it seems to help others as well who struggle like I do.
Thank YOU!!! ...You are so welcome! The struggle is real particularly as I get older! It's always comforting to me to learn that others share my struggle!
You are VERY welcome! I know exactly the feeling! Who knew rug-making could be such great exercise! (At least for our arms! LOL) Thank you for watching Stephanie!
Hello, Beverly! Several things lend themselves to the threads you can experience when you are creating your rugs. The type of fabric used (cotton vs. cotton/poly), the method you use to prepare the strips (tear, cut using shears, rotary cutter/mat, or commercial cutter), & if the fabric is straightcut or bias-cut. Bias cut fabric has very few if ANY threads! Hope that helps!!
Wonderful video. Human ingenuity is so beautiful; we can overcome our personal difficulties to achieve success. This pattern makes so much sense because it's visual. Thank you. Can these rugs be washed and dried without warping? Should they not be dried in a dryer?
Happy Sunday to you!! Thank you for your kind words! MUCH appreciated!! And yes, I am a visual learner so I teach the way I learn. Being dyslexic, I've always struggled with learning the traditional way. Washing recommendations: We suggest hand-washing ( a bathtub works GREAT!), and laying flat to dry. Scotchguard is an amazing product that helps condition & protect the fiber in our rugs. You can find it at most stores & is relatively inexpensive! Once your rug is dry spray both front & back! Here's a video you might enjoy! (Tip #7 is all about Scotchguard!) >> ua-cam.com/video/UMu-zS3gwek/v-deo.html
I really enjoyed crocheting along with your video. My rug turned out beautiful but was only 20x28. I used the largest hook I could find at this time it is a Q.
Hello, Vickie! I'm happy the rug turned out well!! YAY! Can you tell me how many rounds you completed to arrive at a 20x29" size? That would help me to understand your personal gauge.
@@RagstoRugsbyLora Hi Lora! Thank you for responding to my comment . Counting the last round of only SC it was 12 rounds. Also my fabric strips were 2" wide .
@@vickiekarnes1028 Perfect! You are crocheting a little tighter then a 1" stitch gauge! Closer to .80 then 1.0. The way I figured this out was to take the rug width = 20" divided by the rounds completed x 2. 20/24 = .83 No doubt your rug is beautiful! You might just need to add a few rows to get to the desired size! Here's a good video you might enjoy on stitch gauge! ua-cam.com/video/-mz22GJfJuo/v-deo.html
Hello, Karen! Thank you for watching & reaching out! You are SO welcome! Not everyone understands the struggles & challenges dyslexia can present. We learn to overcome with just a little creativity, right?! Happy to know there are others out there who truly do understand!
Thank you for your wonderful instruction on crocheting rugs! I have completed a round one, which with your instruction, I am very pleased with the results. Now I am working on an oval one. I do have a question, If making more than 12 rounds, do you still make the 12th round all sc, or do you wait until final round? Final round sounds more logical to me.
Great question, Alecia! Thanks for asking it for others who might also be wondering! "One single crochet around" will be on the final round of your rug AND/OR the round prior to converting to "Crochet on Demand" technique for our larger rugs. Although it may not seem logical, it works!! Thank YOU for reaching out & your kind words! So very happy to hear your round rug turned out to your liking!!!
Lol I commented earlier today about Paisley material I had gotten that was flannel but I thought it was too thick to use for a rug but now I can’t find that comment so… I have listened to your advice about washing the fabric ahead of time but unfortunately I have already cut the flannel into strips.
Here's the answer to your original question you were looking for! Hello, Gale! Flannel is WONDERFUL in our rugs!! There are 2 types of flannel: print flannel & yarn dyed flannel. Print flannel is printed on one side only & the back is a solid color (often white) It is thicker so we recommend cutting it narrower - possibly 1 1/2". Minimal threading. Yarn-dyed flannel is woven and looks much like homespun fabrics. Each thread is dyed separately - both sides will be the same. Cut this fabric 1 1/2 - 2" width normally. Some threading should be expected. Fleece is another wonderful fabric for our rugs! But a word of caution with fleece. There will be a lot of stretch so we recommend practicing your tension if a beginner before using fleece as tension could be a concern for you! Hope that helps!
Hello, Ofra! Thank you for your compliment & thank you for staying in touch and for reaching out! Yes! A 20mm is only slightly larger then the 16mm (Q size) crochet hook that we use in our videos. But absolutely, you can use this size for the pattern for our oval & round rugs! Your rugs should work up beautifully! Would love to see! Please stay in touch!!
Thank you for the videos! I have now made 5 rugs and am wanting to start a small side business to help support my family. How do you suggest pricing your rugs? Could you make a video on that, there isn't really any clear answer online. Thank you!
I have found that if I use a different color marker at the end (# marked in red), than when I crochet if I see the colored marker than I know I forgot to remove it before I started my pattern. It helps me, hope it helps
Hello, Cindy! That's correct! :) When your rug begins to "cup" or "buckle", an additional stitch or two is necessary in the corners - never on the sides or end after the 12th round. When crocheting in the corners, if it feels too far a reach without buckling your rug, you need to add a stitch to relieve tension. Keeping in mind, that adding TOO many additional stitches will cause your rug to waffle. We call it "Crocheting on Demand": The rule of thumb (after the 12th round) is: 1, 2 or none. One additional stitch in each corner, Two additional stitches in each corner, or No additional stitches. And remember of course, that what you do in one corner, you need to repeat in the other 3. Being attentive to tension concerns as your crochet is important. If the stitch is falling toward your hook, you have a tension concern. Your stitches should always be straight up & down.
This is a really good question! Thanks for asking! I'm going to attach a video link that you will enjoy! You will be able to create ALL sizes of rugs once you watch this! ua-cam.com/video/z4TqNyWJzVM/v-deo.html
Hello, Fay! Happy Saturday! The only thing I can think of is that possibly you are adding 3 stitches at the end of your foundation stitches BEFORE turning? Could this be the case? That could cause your rug to buckle. Step one: foundation stitches (chains), then turn and work those stitches with single crochet stitches and THEN add 2 additional single crochet stitches in that last stitch. Step two: turn and work the stitches, again repeating the 3 stitches on the last stitch. I wish there were a way I could watch you work the first round?
Hello, Linda! Thank you for reaching out! Couple questions .. How many foundational chains did you start with & how many rounds did you complete? Both questions will help me a LOT in answering your question! I'll watch for your responses.
@@lindaqualls8395 Thanks for the information! You are crocheting at a 3/4" gauge. I got that by taking your 12 rounds x 2 = 24. 18 divided by 24 = .75. There's absolutely nothing wrong with your stitch gauge. There is no right or wrong! It simply means you may need to add a few more rounds to get to your desired size! Here's a great video for you to watch! ua-cam.com/video/-mz22GJfJuo/v-deo.html
@@lindaqualls8395 Good Question! Here's a video you will LOVE! Let me know if you have any questions once you watch it, okay? ua-cam.com/video/z4TqNyWJzVM/v-deo.html
Enjoyed your informative video. I have 1 question - for a bigger rug (say I need 15 rnds), starting with rnd 12 you start the increase on demand row and on rnd 15 you 1sc all around, is this correct?
Hello, Susan! That is exactly correct!! That last row, as you shared, I always like to end with just 1sc around giving it a nice clean edge. Thank you for reaching out with your question!
Beautiful rug and thank you for sharing! When you insert into the foundational chain are you putting the hook through one piece of fabric of the chain or two pieces of fabric of the chain? And also as you continue? As you insert your hook into the stitch are you putting it through one piece of fabric of the stitch or two pieces of fabric of the stitch? (Camera was really not close enough to your hands to see those details) Thank you!
Hello!! Thank you for reaching out! There are 2 sides to the foundation chains. First establish the number of chains by subtracting the finished width from the finished length of your rug. Chain that many. Turn and begin working ONE SIDE of those foundation stitches with single crochet stitches (just one piece of the chain) until you reach the end. Add 2 additional single crochet stitches in that last chain to make the turn & reduce tension. Turn your work again and begin working the OTHER side of the foundation chains & the remaining piece of fabric, with single crochet stitches. Hope that helps?!
Hello, Austin! Yes! Although I will say that 2" wide strips is pretty standard for me. Occasionally, dependent on the WEIGHT of the fabric, I have cut the strips to 1 1/2" (heavier weight fabrics) or wider (2 1/2 - 3") (lighter weight fabrics). I normally use one of 3 different sizes of hooks, "Q" for my rugs, "P" for placemats & "L" for small craft projects like ornaments! Thanks for asking!!
Hello, Phoebe! YESSSS! I know exactly what you are looking for! You can find them here! >>> ragstorugs-bylora.com/SHOP.php?category=72 Hope you'll stay in touch!!

Hello! Happy Tuesday to you! I can't answer this question unfortunately. Would you believe I've never crocheted with yarn?! Other than twine or jute. I'll need to explore it. Maybe others can help us out! I'd love to know, too!
I followed your pattern and am on row 10. It is about half the size it is supposed to be. what am I doing wrong? Also how do you keep your strips from fraying and leaving the rug with threads throughout? I am very discouraged to say the least.
Good Morning! First of all, thanks for watching! Second, I'm sorry for your frustrations. :/ Please don't be discouraged!!! The pattern itself is a no-fail way to make our rugs (crocheted OR twine-woven). Two things factor into the SIZE of your rug. The crochet hook SIZE you use & your personal stitch gauge are BIG factors. Assuming you are using a "Q" size hook, the latter is the reason your rug is smaller than you had hoped. You've done absolutely nothing wrong; your stitch gauge is likely different than the 1" gauge I used in the video. Could you share with me the size of your rug at the completion of round 10 - BOTH width & length, the number of foundational chains you started with, & the size you hoped to make.I can then determine your stitch gauge and share with you how many rows you will yet need to complete to arrive at that size!
I am using a size Q hook. My rug measures 12.5 X 16” at the beginning of rnd 10 . When you are holding your rug up I see yours has holes where mine does not. It is difficult to see just where you are putting your hook to make your sc. I am putting my hook into the sc from the previous rnd and I think you might be putting your hook in the space between the sc of the previous rnd. Thank you for any advice to can give. Christine
Hmmm ... did you complete Round 10 (both sides of your rug)? You say at the "beginning" of Round 10 - so I'm not sure if you just completed Round 9 and STARTING Round 10, halfway thru Round 10, or completed Round 10. Also, how many foundational chains did you begin with?
Me again! Without knowing more information, I'm going to assume that you finished round 10. You are crocheting fairly tightly .. at an approximate 5/8" (.63) gauge as opposed to a 1" gauge I use for my pattern. Absolutely nothing wrong with that! Some crochet tightly; some crochet looser. As a tighter crocheter, you will always need to crochet more rounds. I arrived at your gauge by by taking your Width / (Rnds x 2). 12.5 divided by 20 = .63. You should plan to crochet an additional 9 rounds to achieve a rug that is 24" width x 36" length. Here's a video you might enjoy on stitch gauge!! ua-cam.com/video/-mz22GJfJuo/v-deo.html
Thank you, Lynne! What size rug are you planning to make? I can share fabric requirement by way of yardage, fabric rolls and by way of weight (just get out your bathroom scale!) for virtually ANY size or shape of rug you'd like to make! On the homepage of my website is a form you can complete & I'll calculate for you! Free & Easy!! Here's a link! >>> (lower left corner home page) www.ragstorugs-bylora.com/
Not sure what you are referring to Annette? You mean the blue line marker? That was just a piece of poster board I clipped on to keep track of the row we were on. On your cheat sheet, you could just as easily use a paper clip!
New to crochet. Trying this out. Going good other than stitches getting tight. Does perfect tension just come with practice or am I doing something wrong?
Hello, Lisa! So happy you reached out! First of all you are doing nothing wrong!! Tension is definitely the one thing most beginners stress over. You're not alone! When I teach classes I can almost read peoples personalities by the way they crochet. Some perfectionists (like myself) or "Type A" personalities many times will crochet VERY tight, whereas "Type B" personalities (easy-going, relaxed) often crochet VERY loose in the beginnings of learning. I'm guessing you and I are like personalities? You might practice with an old worn out bed sheet. Connect your strips & roll into a big ball so you don't have to stop. Now just focus on the stitches. As you make a stitch look at the space directly below the hook. You should be able to insert the tip of your pinky finger in that space. (Just the tip not the whole finger). If not, open the stitch a bit & continue on. You should never have to PULL on the fabric to complete a stitch. It should just glide through with ease. It won't be long before your stitches are looser & consistent tension. Just a little practice & you'll be there! PROMISE! Just don't give up okay? Hope you'll stay in touch!!

Hello, Linda! Thank you for reaching out! There are many ways to connect your fabric strips. I prefer the "no-sew slit method". It's, in my opinion, the easiest & fastest. I like how you can connect as you go, OR connect piles of fabric! Your choice! I'm attaching a link to a video for you to watch. It's a very old video we uploaded nearly 10 years ago now (Yikes!) & very grainy. But hopefully you can see how to connect those strips. Watching it I realize we need to upload a new video! Thanks for asking and for challenging me to get on it!! Here's that link: ua-cam.com/video/d5pN6Za3k34/v-deo.html
Hello, Fay!! Thank you for reaching out! I use a Susan Bates "Q" sized crochet hook primarily in my rugs. Placemats I also use a Susan Bates but a "P" sized hook! We sell both sizes with free shipping on our website if you'd care to visit?
Hi Lora Love your videos!! This is my first rug i am making. I may have used a smaller hook and not as wide fabric. so mine is approx. 14 x 20 inch. if i want to add a few more rows to make it a bit bigger, where would i make the increase or which row should i be repeating. nice time i will make my chain longer. this one is a practice rug! thanks
Thank you SO much!! Great questions! The first step before starting ANY rug is decide the size! Using a "Q" crochet hook will yield approximately a 1" gauge depending on your person stitch gauge. As a beginner practice to keep your stitches nice and open! NEXT, once you've decided your rug size, subtract your finished width dimension from your finished length dimension. As an example, is you would like your rug to be 20 x 38" - you will subtract 20 from 38. Start with 18 foundational chains. Another example: you would like your finished rug to be 15 x 45". Subtract 15 from 45. Start with 30 foundational chains. And THEN follow the pattern on the cheat sheet! If you would like to make a rug that is larger than the pattern calls out for in rounds, here's a great video for you! ua-cam.com/video/z4TqNyWJzVM/v-deo.html Hope that helps!!

Good suggestion that I will definitely consider with future videos. I'm pretty good at making rugs; a real "newbie" making videos. Learning as I go! Thanks for reaching out, Moneca!!
I think your method could really help me, but I cannot see anything you are crocheting, so I cannot tell what is going on. Can you do it with thinner yarn and closer to the camera?
Hello, Jeanne! I AM! I would say 90% of the rugs I make are using 2" wide fabric strips. Occasionally, if the fabric is very lightweight, I'll cut the strips 2 1/2 - 3". Or, if it's heavier fabric like denim or corduroy - I'll cut it 1 1/2" If the fabric is print and the backside a considerably lighter color, I will fold as I go or use my trusty bias tape maker - fold & press method! (Works awesome!) However, if the fabric is a solid or a print where both sides are the same (like our batiks) - no folding is necessary!
Hello, Barb! Thank you for reaching out with you question! It's a good one & one that others might appreciate. I'm going to share another of our videos on connecting your fabric strips! It's grainy (sorry about that) because it is now 11 years old. Technology has improved so much since then! But .. I feel it will demonstrate how to connect fabric strips (the "no-sew" method). After watching the video again, I'm inspired to make another - clearer!! So thank you! Here's that link! ua-cam.com/video/d5pN6Za3k34/v-deo.html

Hello, Joni! So happy you reached out! To end your rug, insert your needle in the BACK loop of the next stitch. (I generally end mine rugs in a corner) Then using you needle weave the tail through a few stitches on the back side of your rug being certain to do this in two directions to help secure the fabric! Pretty easy! As to the scallop! Yes I DO add scallops to my toothbrush rugs but I use crochet to do it. I'll add a link to my video on adding a scallop! Let me know if this works for you, okay?

Hello, Beverly! Several things lend themselves to the threads you can experience when you are creating your rugs. The type of fabric used (cotton vs. cotton/poly), the method you use to prepare the strips (tear, cut using shears, rotary cutter/mat, or commercial cutter), & if the fabric is straightcut or bias-cut. Bias cut fabric has very few if ANY threads! Hope that helps!!
Thank you for the compliment .. appreciated muchly!!
Genius! Thank you so much.
You're welcome!
Wonderful video. Human ingenuity is so beautiful; we can overcome our personal difficulties to achieve success. This pattern makes so much sense because it's visual. Thank you. Can these rugs be washed and dried without warping? Should they not be dried in a dryer?
Happy Sunday to you!! Thank you for your kind words! MUCH appreciated!! And yes, I am a visual learner so I teach the way I learn. Being dyslexic, I've always struggled with learning the traditional way.
Washing recommendations: We suggest hand-washing ( a bathtub works GREAT!), and laying flat to dry. Scotchguard is an amazing product that helps condition & protect the fiber in our rugs. You can find it at most stores & is relatively inexpensive! Once your rug is dry spray both front & back!
Here's a video you might enjoy! (Tip #7 is all about Scotchguard!) >> ua-cam.com/video/UMu-zS3gwek/v-deo.html
I really enjoyed crocheting along with your video. My rug turned out beautiful but was only 20x28. I used the largest hook I could find at this time it is a Q.
Hello, Vickie! I'm happy the rug turned out well!! YAY! Can you tell me how many rounds you completed to arrive at a 20x29" size? That would help me to understand your personal gauge.
@@RagstoRugsbyLora Hi Lora! Thank you for responding to my comment . Counting the last round of only SC it was 12 rounds. Also my fabric strips were 2" wide .
@@vickiekarnes1028 Perfect! You are crocheting a little tighter then a 1" stitch gauge! Closer to .80 then 1.0. The way I figured this out was to take the rug width = 20" divided by the rounds completed x 2. 20/24 = .83
No doubt your rug is beautiful! You might just need to add a few rows to get to the desired size!
Here's a good video you might enjoy on stitch gauge! ua-cam.com/video/-mz22GJfJuo/v-deo.html
@@RagstoRugsbyLora Thank you so much! I will do that, can't wait to start another one.
I have dyslexia to thank you so much for this video!❤❤❤❤❤
Hello, Karen! Thank you for watching & reaching out! You are SO welcome!
Not everyone understands the struggles & challenges dyslexia can present. We learn to overcome with just a little creativity, right?! Happy to know there are others out there who truly do understand!
Thank you for your wonderful instruction on crocheting rugs! I have completed a round one, which with your instruction, I am very pleased with the results. Now I am working on an oval one. I do have a question, If making more than 12 rounds, do you still make the 12th round all sc, or do you wait until final round? Final round sounds more logical to me.
Great question, Alecia! Thanks for asking it for others who might also be wondering! "One single crochet around" will be on the final round of your rug AND/OR the round prior to converting to "Crochet on Demand" technique for our larger rugs. Although it may not seem logical, it works!!
Thank YOU for reaching out & your kind words! So very happy to hear your round rug turned out to your liking!!!
That's scary 😨 😳 😬...but I'll give it a try!!!
You are going to LOVE it!! Your rugs will turn out perfect EVERYTIME! Any size! Fool-proof method of creating beautiful rugs.
Lol I commented earlier today about Paisley material I had gotten that was flannel but I thought it was too thick to use for a rug but now I can’t find that comment so… I have listened to your advice about washing the fabric ahead of time but unfortunately I have already cut the flannel into strips.
No worries, Gale! Go for it!! Hoping you share a picture of your "Paisley Flannel" rug for all of us to see!!
Here's the answer to your original question you were looking for!
Hello, Gale! Flannel is WONDERFUL in our rugs!! There are 2 types of flannel: print flannel & yarn dyed flannel.
Print flannel is printed on one side only & the back is a solid color (often white) It is thicker so we recommend cutting it narrower - possibly 1 1/2". Minimal threading.
Yarn-dyed flannel is woven and looks much like homespun fabrics. Each thread is dyed separately - both sides will be the same. Cut this fabric 1 1/2 - 2" width normally. Some threading should be expected.
Fleece is another wonderful fabric for our rugs! But a word of caution with fleece. There will be a lot of stretch so we recommend practicing your tension if a beginner before using fleece as tension could be a concern for you!
Hope that helps!
I love your videos...can I use a 20 cm/ 20 mm crochet stick for round and oval rugs? Thank you
Hello, Ofra! Thank you for your compliment & thank you for staying in touch and for reaching out! Yes! A 20mm is only slightly larger then the 16mm (Q size) crochet hook that we use in our videos. But absolutely, you can use this size for the pattern for our oval & round rugs! Your rugs should work up beautifully! Would love to see! Please stay in touch!!
Thank you for the videos! I have now made 5 rugs and am wanting to start a small side business to help support my family. How do you suggest pricing your rugs? Could you make a video on that, there isn't really any clear answer online.
Thank you!
You're very welcome! LOVE
I have found that if I use a different color marker at the end (# marked in red), than when I crochet if I see the colored marker than I know I forgot to remove it before I started my pattern. It helps me, hope it helps
That's a great idea! I love it!! Thank you for sharing Cindi!
If it starts cupping is that a sign you need do you to add a stich?
Thanks!
Cindy
Hello, Cindy! That's correct! :) When your rug begins to "cup" or "buckle", an additional stitch or two is necessary in the corners - never on the sides or end after the 12th round. When crocheting in the corners, if it feels too far a reach without buckling your rug, you need to add a stitch to relieve tension. Keeping in mind, that adding TOO many additional stitches will cause your rug to waffle.
We call it "Crocheting on Demand": The rule of thumb (after the 12th round) is: 1, 2 or none. One additional stitch in each corner, Two additional stitches in each corner, or No additional stitches.
And remember of course, that what you do in one corner, you need to repeat in the other 3.
Being attentive to tension concerns as your crochet is important. If the stitch is falling toward your hook, you have a tension concern. Your stitches should always be straight up & down.
How do I make the mat larger? Is there a repeat pattern to make the mat 4 feet long?
This is a really good question! Thanks for asking!
I'm going to attach a video link that you will enjoy! You will be able to create ALL sizes of rugs once you watch this!

What would cause the middle, foundation stitches, to pucker and the rest to be fine?
Hello, Fay! Happy Saturday!
The only thing I can think of is that possibly you are adding 3 stitches at the end of your foundation stitches BEFORE turning? Could this be the case? That could cause your rug to buckle.
Step one: foundation stitches (chains), then turn and work those stitches with single crochet stitches and THEN add 2 additional single crochet stitches in that last stitch.
Step two: turn and work the stitches, again repeating the 3 stitches on the last stitch.
I wish there were a way I could watch you work the first round?
You are right I don’t understand the turn thing. Would the DVD help explain it better than the u-tube lesson. You’re good! Thanks
My rug was shaped nice but only came out too 18 by 25. Did I make my stitches too tight?
Hello, Linda! Thank you for reaching out!
Couple questions .. How many foundational chains did you start with & how many rounds did you complete? Both questions will help me a LOT in answering your question! I'll watch for your responses.
I did 10 chains. 12 rounds to complete.
@@lindaqualls8395 Thanks for the information! You are crocheting at a 3/4" gauge. I got that by taking your 12 rounds x 2 = 24. 18 divided by 24 = .75.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with your stitch gauge. There is no right or wrong! It simply means you may need to add a few more rounds to get to your desired size!
Here's a great video for you to watch! ua-cam.com/video/-mz22GJfJuo/v-deo.html
@@RagstoRugsbyLora
If I have to add a few more rounds. Which line on cheat sheet do I follow? Thank you for your help 😊
@@lindaqualls8395 Good Question! Here's a video you will LOVE! Let me know if you have any questions once you watch it, okay?
ua-cam.com/video/z4TqNyWJzVM/v-deo.html
Enjoyed your informative video. I have 1 question - for a bigger rug (say I need 15 rnds), starting with rnd 12 you start the increase on demand row and on rnd 15 you 1sc all around, is this correct?
Hello, Susan! That is exactly correct!! That last row, as you shared, I always like to end with just 1sc around giving it a nice clean edge.
Thank you for reaching out with your question!
Beautiful rug and thank you for sharing! When you insert into the foundational chain are you putting the hook through one piece of fabric of the chain or two pieces of fabric of the chain? And also as you continue? As you insert your hook into the stitch are you putting it through one piece of fabric of the stitch or two pieces of fabric of the stitch? (Camera was really not close enough to your hands to see those details) Thank you!
Hello!! Thank you for reaching out! There are 2 sides to the foundation chains. First establish the number of chains by subtracting the finished width from the finished length of your rug. Chain that many.
Turn and begin working ONE SIDE of those foundation stitches with single crochet stitches (just one piece of the chain) until you reach the end. Add 2 additional single crochet stitches in that last chain to make the turn & reduce tension.
Turn your work again and begin working the OTHER side of the foundation chains & the remaining piece of fabric, with single crochet stitches.
Hope that helps?!
@@RagstoRugsbyLora yes thank you! And thank you for replying so quickly and also for sharing your beautiful work on UA-cam so others can learn!☺️

Thank you very much!
From where we get that material?
Have you ever thought about crocheting rugs with smaller width fabric materials and smaller needle !
Hello, Austin! Yes! Although I will say that 2" wide strips is pretty standard for me. Occasionally, dependent on the WEIGHT of the fabric, I have cut the strips to 1 1/2" (heavier weight fabrics) or wider (2 1/2 - 3") (lighter weight fabrics).
I normally use one of 3 different sizes of hooks, "Q" for my rugs, "P" for placemats & "L" for small craft projects like ornaments!
Thanks for asking!!

My question is how would you go about using your method for smaller gauges like with yarn.
Hello! Happy Tuesday to you! I can't answer this question unfortunately. Would you believe I've never crocheted with yarn?! Other than twine or jute. I'll need to explore it. Maybe others can help us out! I'd love to know, too!
I followed your pattern and am on row 10. It is about half the size it is supposed to be. what am I doing wrong? Also how do you keep your strips from fraying and leaving the rug with threads throughout? I am very discouraged to say the least.
Good Morning! First of all, thanks for watching! Second, I'm sorry for your frustrations. :/ Please don't be discouraged!!!
The pattern itself is a no-fail way to make our rugs (crocheted OR twine-woven). Two things factor into the SIZE of your rug. The crochet hook SIZE you use & your personal stitch gauge are BIG factors.
Assuming you are using a "Q" size hook, the latter is the reason your rug is smaller than you had hoped. You've done absolutely nothing wrong; your stitch gauge is likely different than the 1" gauge I used in the video.
Could you share with me the size of your rug at the completion of round 10 - BOTH width & length, the number of foundational chains you started with, & the size you hoped to make.I can then determine your stitch gauge and share with you how many rows you will yet need to complete to arrive at that size!
I am using a size Q hook. My rug measures 12.5 X 16” at the beginning of rnd 10 . When you are holding your rug up I see yours has holes where mine does not. It is difficult to see just where you are putting your hook to make your sc. I am putting my hook into the sc from the previous rnd and I think you might be putting your hook in the space between the sc of the previous rnd. Thank you for any advice to can give.
Christine
Hmmm ... did you complete Round 10 (both sides of your rug)? You say at the "beginning" of Round 10 - so I'm not sure if you just completed Round 9 and STARTING Round 10, halfway thru Round 10, or completed Round 10.
Also, how many foundational chains did you begin with?
Me again!
Without knowing more information, I'm going to assume that you finished round 10.
You are crocheting fairly tightly .. at an approximate 5/8" (.63) gauge as opposed to a 1" gauge I use for my pattern. Absolutely nothing wrong with that! Some crochet tightly; some crochet looser. As a tighter crocheter, you will always need to crochet more rounds.
I arrived at your gauge by by taking your Width / (Rnds x 2).
12.5 divided by 20 = .63.
You should plan to crochet an additional 9 rounds to achieve a rug that is 24" width x 36" length.
Here's a video you might enjoy on stitch gauge!!

@@RagstoRugsbyLora If I were to crochet additional rounds how do I determined where to increase and how many sc to increase?

Not sure what you are referring to Annette? You mean the blue line marker? That was just a piece of poster board I clipped on to keep track of the row we were on. On your cheat sheet, you could just as easily use a paper clip!
New to crochet. Trying this out. Going good other than stitches getting tight. Does perfect tension just come with practice or am I doing something wrong?
Hello, Lisa! So happy you reached out! First of all you are doing nothing wrong!!
Tension is definitely the one thing most beginners stress over. You're not alone! When I teach classes I can almost read peoples personalities by the way they crochet. Some perfectionists (like myself) or "Type A" personalities many times will crochet VERY tight, whereas "Type B" personalities (easy-going, relaxed) often crochet VERY loose in the beginnings of learning. I'm guessing you and I are like personalities?
You might practice with an old worn out bed sheet. Connect your strips & roll into a big ball so you don't have to stop. Now just focus on the stitches. As you make a stitch look at the space directly below the hook. You should be able to insert the tip of your pinky finger in that space. (Just the tip not the whole finger). If not, open the stitch a bit & continue on. You should never have to PULL on the fabric to complete a stitch. It should just glide through with ease.
It won't be long before your stitches are looser & consistent tension. Just a little practice & you'll be there! PROMISE! Just don't give up okay? Hope you'll stay in touch!!

How do you connect the fabric? You said we need preconnected strip?
Hello, Linda! Thank you for reaching out! There are many ways to connect your fabric strips. I prefer the "no-sew slit method". It's, in my opinion, the easiest & fastest. I like how you can connect as you go, OR connect piles of fabric! Your choice!
I'm attaching a link to a video for you to watch. It's a very old video we uploaded nearly 10 years ago now (Yikes!) & very grainy. But hopefully you can see how to connect those strips. Watching it I realize we need to upload a new video! Thanks for asking and for challenging me to get on it!!

What brand crochet hook do you use?
Hello, Fay!! Thank you for reaching out! I use a Susan Bates "Q" sized crochet hook primarily in my rugs. Placemats I also use a Susan Bates but a "P" sized hook! We sell both sizes with free shipping on our website if you'd care to visit?
Hi Lora Love your videos!! This is my first rug i am making. I may have used a smaller hook and not as wide fabric. so mine is approx. 14 x 20 inch. if i want to add a few more rows to make it a bit bigger, where would i make the increase or which row should i be repeating. nice time i will make my chain longer. this one is a practice rug! thanks
Thank you SO much!! Great questions! The first step before starting ANY rug is decide the size! Using a "Q" crochet hook will yield approximately a 1" gauge depending on your person stitch gauge. As a beginner practice to keep your stitches nice and open!
NEXT, once you've decided your rug size, subtract your finished width dimension from your finished length dimension. As an example, is you would like your rug to be 20 x 38" - you will subtract 20 from 38. Start with 18 foundational chains.
Another example: you would like your finished rug to be 15 x 45". Subtract 15 from 45. Start with 30 foundational chains.
And THEN follow the pattern on the cheat sheet! If you would like to make a rug that is larger than the pattern calls out for in rounds, here's a great video for you!

I have started my rug over several times but by the time I get towards the end it always puckers in the middle. Help?
See my answer above okay, Fay?
Are you still working with 2” strips and are they folded in half?
Hello, Jeanne! I AM! I would say 90% of the rugs I make are using 2" wide fabric strips. Occasionally, if the fabric is very lightweight, I'll cut the strips 2 1/2 - 3". Or, if it's heavier fabric like denim or corduroy - I'll cut it 1 1/2"
If the fabric is print and the backside a considerably lighter color, I will fold as I go or use my trusty bias tape maker - fold & press method! (Works awesome!)
However, if the fabric is a solid or a print where both sides are the same (like our batiks) - no folding is necessary!
How do you add different colors?
Hello, Barb! Thank you for reaching out with you question! It's a good one & one that others might appreciate. I'm going to share another of our videos on connecting your fabric strips! It's grainy (sorry about that) because it is now 11 years old. Technology has improved so much since then!

Hi Lora, How do I end the Amish Knot or toothbrush Rugs? Also Can I add the scalloped border?
Hello, Joni! So happy you reached out! To end your rug, insert your needle in the BACK loop of the next stitch. (I generally end mine rugs in a corner) Then using you needle weave the tail through a few stitches on the back side of your rug being certain to do this in two directions to help secure the fabric! Pretty easy!
As to the scallop! Yes I DO add scallops to my toothbrush rugs but I use crochet to do it. I'll add a link to my video on adding a scallop! Let me know if this works for you, okay?
