I put the rug down in the kitchen, I really like it. When I regain the use in my right arm from making this one I might do another one. I bet I could find some good stuff at the thrift to tear up into strips. I posted a picture.

Arttie,
The strips are about an inch wide, and I tie the strips together as I go. I tear up a whole bunch of them at one time. The hook size I used to crochet it was "N".

For tomorrow and its needs I do not pray, but keep me, guide me, love me, Lord just for today.
