Rug started

Using an H hook and plarn, ch 106.
Turn. In 4th ch from hook, work dc. Dc across. 103 dc.
This makes the 2 foot side.
Turn, ch 3. Work dc across.
Repeat until rug is desired width. (3 feet is usually well proportioned.)
It twisted and rippled for several rows. By the 8th row, it was lying flat.
5 rows make 2 inches. This will take about 200 bags. Changing colors will make stripes. Make the stripes as wide or as narrow as you wish - this is your creative art! Make it uniquely yours!
I'm making this one for my son's back door, inside his garage. He doesn't care about color, just that it stops some of the sand and dirt from being tracked into his house. It will do that, but it will take some time to make. It will probably take over 30 hours just to cut the bags!
