HallwayRagRug

I designed and made this rag rug. The warp is made of brand new black 100 % cotton yarn. It is necessary to use it for rag rugs to make sure it all will stay firm together and last decades.

It is approx 2,5 meters long and 70 cm wide. It has 3 sections and it is designed for our hallway. The black warp is practical because it looks neater longer.

One end of the rag rug is darker than the other because it will be placed closer the doorway. I have used old recycled linen, LP-yarn (80% of recycled cotton and 20% of other fibers) and left over weft from YoungLady's project in 2020 and textile industry left over material.

More than 50 % of the used materials are recycled. Rag rugs are always in fashion. If they are made in the traditional way like I do (recycled materials) they follow mega hot FashionNOW trend.

 

When you make your rag rugs proper they last for decades: even used recycled materials. Now I've roll up this beauty to sleep for a while. We will wait for the snow until placing it on the floor to prevent it to be dirty immediately because of the muddy paw prints!
