What do you do when
a) the wood floor in front of the sink needs somethign to soak up all the splashes
b) hubby has lots of old tshirts with a variety of holes??
Answer: use the scissors, some suggestions from Yarn mag and google a bit:
This is one t-shirt and an hour with a crochet hook – it’s about the right size to stand a teapot on. I figure if I can get all the t-shirts cut up, it’ll only take a couple of weeks to hook up a rug. I’m wondering, though, whether I should die up the strips in red/brown/orange (tends to be the colour scheme in my kitchen) and then make it up – ‘twould certainly hide look presentable for longer than a white mat at the kitchen sink! AND I get to try dyeing things!!! :>

Hi Kate. I sent you an e-mail following your comment on my blog (about Captain Underpants) but got a non-delivery notice.
Yes, Captain Underpants. hehe.
The question is does your husband recognize his cleverly disguised t-shirt? Nice job!
Looking good..I wonder how big it is now?
And does your LIKE you cutting up his old shirts 😉
Will be interesting to see how it looks in the end and how it dyes up.

he he he – my hubby would be so against me using his shirts that way. Can’t wait to see it dyed up!
Oooh, I like your round rug so far. I made a t-shirt rug for the bathroom about two years ago, but mine was rectangular. Good luck with yours, I can’t wait to see it all worked up!
