Instructions

    • 1

      Take your rubber craft grid and cut it to the size you would like your rug. You can find this grid at a fabric store. It costs about $5 per yard. You can make several small rugs with a yard of the grid or one large rug.

    • 2

      Cut your towel or t-shirt into 1/2 inch strips. Then cut those strips into two inch sections.

    • 3

      Thread the two inch pieces through the grid so both ends are on the same side and tie into a knot. This will create the fluffy effect when all the holes in the grid are filled. You can even wash your rug on the gentle cycle in the washing machine.
