So far I've just fiddled with scraps, though, so I haven't put it up on my blog.<BR/><BR/>If you want to see my site, it's currently at:<BR/><BR/>www.xanga.com/KTtheKCbride<BR/><BR/>though in a couple of months I hope to launch my own WP blog as an outlet for my craftiness :-)<BR/><BR/>I just went garage saleing this morning and picked up a bunch of new tees; once I get those cut up and have some sort of finished product I'll be sure to put up an entry.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-15879979898723067872007-04-28T11:09:00.000-05:002007-04-28T11:09:00.000-05:00You are giving me ideas I want to try... but can't...You are giving me ideas I want to try... but can't right now!

I am single crocheting in each stitch of the foundation chain. to turn I just add one chain at the end of the row. flip the rug and work back and forth. and back and forth again, flipping the rug at the end of each row.<BR/>does that make sense? does that help? It seems to be working out great this way and I have no problems with it laying flat...let me know if you have any more questions.<BR/>and do you have a blog? I can't see a link to you anywhere on your profile page. I would love to see your rug in progress.Amanda Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06311818385469850186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-86080383973472135462007-04-27T21:13:00.000-05:002007-04-27T21:13:00.000-05:00Hey, I recognize that rug.

I also found a great link with a pattern to make pants out of t-shirts. Course I can't find it now, but I'll post about it next week.
