    Here ladies, i give you a for,ular to creat a round woth whatever thickness of the yarn.
    First round: three stitchhes crochet (it can be single, double, or tripble) in each foundation chain.
    Second: two stitches in each one
    Third round: one stitch in first one, two stitches in second one and so on
    Four round: one stitch in the first one, one sitch in second one, two stitches in the third one
    Round five: divide the total of all stitches of round fourth by 8 and use a marker. Now you crochet two stitches where the markers are. So by adding 8 stitches in each round you are making the round is bigger. To make a perfect round piece : do not plave your adding stitches at the same spot of the previous round. You just have to scatter them all around. As long as you add 8 stitch of each round, you are making a perfect circle without it curling up. Keep this formular in mind because it is a golden rules that take me a good long time to find out

    Curling means needs more increases.
    Waves means needs less increases.
    However, ripples and waves can be remedied with a long soak and dry -- which eliminates the frogging.

    Finished watching the one thing I love about your videos is you don't go so fast that I can not keep up and have to keep rewinding and you do not assume that we already know something you explain it in detail. Love your videos

    When I crochet round hats, I think of it as.... Round 2 = 2 stitches (in each previous stitch). Round 3 = 1 stitch, then 2 stitches. Round 4 = 1 stitch, 1 stitch, 2 stitches. Round 5 = 1 stitch, 1 stitch, 1 stitch, 2 stitches. Etc. Each grouping adds up to the row number you are working on. (Row 5.... 1+1+1+2=5) Makes it easier for me to remember how many increases to do for that row. I'm going to try that concept on this type of rug too and see how that works. Thanks for your video.

    Thank you very much for the tips, infact I saw it last night & started crocheting today. I found it very convenient to follow the traditional method of crocheting ,ie an increase in each row & using the back loop to crochet keeping the tension not to tight. It's giving an absolute flat circle without any hassle 👍

      I think you should. Not recommended for someone new at crochet. But if you've made a several circles already, then this could be fun to find what pattern works with your hook and yarn, using the methods of keeping it flat like I show in this video (and on my site) I would give it ago :D

    I did something similar to this many years ago. We would take strips of cloth.........preferable all the same kind of cloth......like all cotton.....and BRAID them. then shape it into a circle or oval to make a rug. Looked just like a braided rug you'd buy. FUN. Yard sailing for old cloths/shirts for the cloth was fun too.

    Try holding your hook in the overhand position and relax your left hand instead of pointing your index finger so far away from your hand.

    Mine has sort of flattened out a little bit of a wave if I don’t do any more increase will it still grow and be a big rug? Or u have to add more increases later or can keep doing sc rounds

    • @Meladora1
      @Meladora1  ปีที่แล้ว

      If it is curling, it means it doesn't have enough stitches, yes increase, if it is warping, then you have to many and I would rip out the previous row and do it without an increase. this is how I did mine. I took it row by row. Lay it down after every row to make sure it's still staying flat.

      @JANEEDISTURBED 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I understand what she's saying. T-shirt yarn [strips] are pretty easy to work with. I don't understand how it could become so hard for anyone. It's light, and the strips do not have to be perfectly flat as some mat assume. It curls up length-wise on it's own anyhow. This the yard word.

      It was a hard struggle. I had to keep going row by row like I show here and changing and ripping out to make adjustments. I show you what to look for and how to make the correct adjustments in the video and in the picture of the pattern :D

      I bet you could! I've never done it though, but there are a few videos out there to help. There's one at this link, as well as how to make plarn, which is made of plastic bags www.meladorascreations.com/10-ways-to-recycle-using-crochet/

    I have had to frogg the project and restart seveeral times, by row 7 it is starting to look like a bowl, so i take our a row and do a increese, by row 13 it was still curling and started to look like a basket, your instructions are simple, and its only 20 some rows,, but i wanted to make it bigger, in your instructions, you stopped saying by the end of the row how many stitches you should have, what am i doing wrong, i went and got the size P hook and have t shirt yarn that is a 6

      Super Bulky 6: 9-15 mm. You fall into the correct size hook for your 6 ply. The reason I stop giving counts at a certain point is because everyone crochet's at different a tightness. This is where the "Tips" comes into play. Continue the pattern as taught, looking for the 2 things I mentioned, the "bowl" and the "ruffle" and adjust as needed. I hope this answers your questions. Have a great day!

      Do what you feel, with these yarns it can be hard to go by a set pattern, this is why I teach you what to look for so that your rug will lay flat. So feel free to follow your gut on this one.

    I never buy t-shirt yarn, because I like to think of being thrifty and so I make my own yarn from old t-shirts. It can be a little tedious, but it's a great way to get rid of t-shirts rather than make them into rags. I mean how many rags can you have?!😂

    • @chinaalia3
      @chinaalia3 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Monica Santiago you can get it online do Google search or make your own out of t-shirts, sheets, etc..I have a jersey twin maybe full size sheet and I will cut it into one continuous strip. TH-cam has videos on how to. you can buy t-shirts from thrif stores or sheets. i have rag rug book and this rug, yet beautiful, sounds expensive and her description just makes it sound not fun. The point in any crochet, knit or sewing project is FUN AND JOY. So to get this type of yarn depending on color, how much and place is costly but go get some old tees, sheets that you may have or at goodwill and other thrift stores and then find a better video that seems fun. in the videos below this a lady makes rug using her hand and I think costly wool, but she does it fast. not every rug is fast so find video on shape you want and you can start with fabrics you probably have. Some rugs do take long but this video, yet beautiful, ruined the joy of creating your own project that no one else has. one of a kind so please have FUN. I have never done a video for TH-cam but once I begin rag rugs, quilting, anything crafty I will learn to maybe start posting some videos but there are tons I can tell you that. there is a woman on here in the same list I believe who teaches you how to do it using old t-shirts safety pins and other ways on how to do it and you can also get the rag rug book which is tiny and it actually has a tool attached to it to help you weave in your knots.
