Gauge: 12 UKdc/USsc per 4 in, in the round, on 6.5mm hook, after pressing/blocking

Description from pattern
Artwork version:
Recycled, crocheted, circular, cotton-shirt-yarn table mat, using wrong side as top side. This pattern uses both UK and US crochet terminology.
Conventional version:
The same mat will look more conventional with the right side at the top, and perhaps contrasting ribbon woven through the stitches along the outside edge.

IMPORTANT
Normal photography cannot justify the colours in our sample knit. To see why it is described as an artwork, look at the close-up photos on this page and on the designer’s project page. Please, please upload your project to Ravelry with photographs of the original shirt and the finished item - it is our polite request to see your own beautiful interpretation in return for this free pattern. Thank you.

Requirements

• Rag-yarn: Approx 29g or 32yd/29m of pure cotton shirt-weight rag yarn, cut into bias strips 0.25in/0.75cm to 3/8in/1cm wide. (Equivalent to about a third of the usable fabric in a man’s large shirt).
• Hook: metric 6.5mm; UK and Canadian size 3; US size 10.5 (or size to suit your rag-yarn after swatching).
• Sewing notions to join strips of yarn when cutting, and for repairing broken yarn while crocheting.
• Tapestry needle with eye large enough for yarn

Gauge
The sample knit had the above gauge. However the pattern is adaptable for any reasonable gauge to suit your shirt rag yarn.

No stitch diagram or charts included.
