ch = Chain

sl st = Slip Stitch

st = Stitch

SC = Single Crochet

*= Repeat what is in between til end of row

 

For this project you’ll need:

HOOK: 11.5 mm or US size P

YARN: In this pattern I used I used 3 different colors and 3 skeins of each color. My skeins where bought out here in Israel and they went by weight.

Each skein weighted about 59 grams \ 2 ounces. But no tag on them so I have no idea on how long they are.

The width of the yarn is 4 ½ cms \ 1.78 inches

The finished rug measured 93 centimeters or 36 ½ inches wide. But you can make your bigger if you want.

And here’s how…..these are what to look out for so you can make adjustments for your own pattern as needed.

If your rug starts to curl up to much along the sides

Then your rug is telling you that you don’t have enough yarn and you need to increase.

If your rug is buckling and not laying flat, it means you have to much yarn and you need to rip out your round and do just a round of regular stitches without any increases in it. If it is stitch buckling badly after you’ve done your row again, you may need to rip out another row further back even more before you start your single crochets with no increases. But before you start ripping out rows, lay your rug down on the ground and step on it, because this yarn is heavy and it can work itself out if it’s not buckling to badly.
