I recently sent out an email to my awesome subscribers asking what were some new projects they would like to see. Several of them responded with baby items!
This rug is simple, fun and works up in less than three hours. Those are my kind of projects!
AD-FREE PDF PATTERN AVAILABLE FOR $2.99 AT THE END OF THE POST
WHAT I USED:
– size N hook
– 2 skeins of Bernat Blanket yarn in (1)grey (1)white
– tapestry needle
– scissors
PATTERN NOTES:
You can decide whichever color you prefer to start the rug. Or if you’re doing a solid color then you won’t. Have to worry about how many rows for each stripe. Just keep going until you reach the correct length.
THE PATTERN:
ch 56
R1 – in the 2nd ch from the hook place a HDC (half double crochet), continue with HDC all the way across, ch 1, turn.
R2 – HDC in same ST as the CH 1, continue with the HDC all the way across, ch 1, turn.
R3-6 – repeat row 2

IDEAS FOR ADDED EDGING
I considered adding an edging such as tassels but then changed my mind because I knew it wouldn’t fit the overall theme this rug will be in. Other ideas along with tassels would be fringe, pompoms or whatever else you can imagine!
Really have fun with the overall design and try out something you would REALLY enjoy!
