Last seen in March 2015, when I started crocheting a rug with 1" strips torn from said sheet.
Size Q crochet hook |
How big would you say this is? |
I weighed the ball at the beginning of a row; it weighed 157 grams.
After one row of crochet border, it weighed 63 grams. So, one round used 157-63=94 grams of "yarn". And I didn't have another 94 grams left on the ball, so I called it done at that point.
Win!
Hope that the intended recipient likes it. These rugs-from-sheets are pretty durable--I already have a couple in my house. I encourage everyone to try one of these!
that's a great idea. I've been collecting old t-shirts to make crochet bathmats, but haven't got round to it yet. There is a flaw in your weighing your ball of yarn trick - it works for rows, but not for rounds as they use a bit more yarn each time.
