“Knitting Fabric Rugs” has 28 stunning designs by Karen Tiede. I have crocheted rugs before but I have knitted one. I looked through the digital copy and was so enthralled by the possibilities that I immediately ordered a paper copy to have in my craft library.
There are so many lovely designs, that it is hard to choose which one to start with. The patterns range from fairly easy to more involved, so the book should appeal to beginning knitters to more advanced ones. I am what I consider an advanced beginner in knitting as I have only been knitting for seven years and most of my projects have been fashion accessories. I'm really ready to try something different and the idea of knitting a rug is very appealing.
The author gives us background on how she began to knit rugs and why she has modified how she knits and what materials she uses. The list of types of material is very informative, though I must admit that her suggestion of going to thrift stores is probably one that I won't use. I know that bedbugs can be transmitted through clothing (which is the primary source of the “rags”.
I will probably stick to my old clothes and that of family and friends as well as buying materials that I can dye the colors that I want to use. I've lost a lot of weight over the past two years and have many way too big t-shirts of various colors that should be a good starting point for my rugs. I will probably snarf some of my husbands old shirts as well (especially those I don't care for on him but which colors are really pretty.)
The photographs in this book are really well done. The colors just jump at me from the pages and entice me to try that pattern with those colors.
I think that with the information that the author has provided a really good amount of basic skills that you can take forward into designing your own rugs. I will probably start with one for wall hanging (thinking smaller) and work my way up to a larger floor rug.
I received a temporary digital ARC copy of this book from the publisher, Storey Publishing, LLC, via Netgalley.
