If you have a favorite broken-in T-shirt you love wearing on the weekend, you’ll adore how this knit bath mat feels under your feet.

T-shirt yarn (made from leftover T-shirt material) gives this knit rug a smooth, absorbent texture, and the step-by-step instructions in this printable PDF pattern make it a wonderful beginner knitting project. You can use this rug in the kitchen, bedroom, or even as a doormat. The simple casual design is extremely versatile.
