Do any of you make braided rugs? I have in the past and now am going to give it a try again. I am one to recycle as much as possible, so for my braided rugs I have been collecting wool jackets. I get them for a dollar each at our local thrift store. I think I will get quite a bit of wool from each jacket for a dollar. I am going to start tonight and maybe I can post some pictures showing my progress. I don't know how to post pictures here yet and if I can't figure it out then I will post them at my blog for all to see. I would love to see pictures if any of you here have made braided rugs.
I have tons of stuff on my blog about braided rugs even a set of tutorial on how to make them including t starts changing colors tapered ends and butted rounds your welcome to check them out the largest rug I have made is in my sewing room it is about 12 feet by 20 feet and weights between 4 and 5 hundred pounds
