First Rug!

Okay, I am admitting right up front that this is a weird way to be nesting, but here I am. I have the rug bug.

I started this rug yesterday afternoon and this morning got it finished.

Well, almost.

As I was putting the edge on it, I ran out of jute!  So, as you can see, the right edge looks a bit rough. Otherwise, I am so pleased with it. It worked up quickly, (I just crocheted it), and it seems like it is going to wear well.

Anyone have a scrap of heavy jute lying around…?

That's so neat! I love things that are made with your own two hands. Although the most I've ever knitted was half of a scarf. That said, Sweet girl and I are making christmas wreath ornaments as gifts this year. Which reminds me we need to buy fabric and get started! It takes a while!
God Bless,
Carmen

Nice rug. No sombrero here. Aunt Joyce says, "Don't put it on the floor, forget that it is there, and stumble over it because you can not see over your belly."
