Learn to crochet the beautiful ripple stitch to create a zig-zag effect for this cheerful rug.

Mielie recycled T-shirt yarn is very chunky, and very quick!

You will need approximately 10 balls of Mielie T-shirt yarn for a bedside mat, and 6 balls for a smaller bathmat. Size 12mm crochet hook.

Colour is your choice: beautiful as a bright and happy rainbow rug, or try fading from very light to very dark in a colour shad to create an ombre effect.

If Mielie t-shirt yarn is not available locally, the pattern includes instructions to make your own t-yarn from old t-shirts.
