Toothbrush Rugs

 Using my modified toothbrush as a tool, I made some more carpets.

 This is from a lightweight cotton bedspread. I used scraps of cotton and silk for the "cord" (the non-weaving strand).

 I needed a long runner for the interior door...so I chained a long rope before beginning my loops. It is about 56" long. Printed silk and cotton strips from outdated kimono.

Rags - blouses, t-shirts, sweaters.

 A dear friend dropped off a few bags of old t-shirts that soon became balls of "yarn". The remaining blouses, button down shirts and pants became strips for simple rugs. 

I used heavy cotton string from the garden store for the warp on a peg loom. All of the mats are about 20" wide by 26" long.

This one is mostly knits.
