    I'm still working on my circular rug crochet from old t-shirts.
    The first pic is when I was on my fourth row.
    The next pic with the brown colour is my eighth row.
    I cut and use 1 cm strips from old t-shirts for this rug.
    The usual instruction for adding rows would be increasing by 12 each row but I had to increase mine by more like 14, because it tends to curl or bend.

    Hi Meja,

    Good work !!
    It must be quite a task to cut those strips and then crochet with them so neatly, isn't it. You do have lots of patiences . Looking forward to seeing the finished one.
    All the best.
