The rug shown in the photograph is an easy one for a starter It will find a place for itself in almost any room in the house Just choose a shade which will definitely contribute a big bit to the color scheme With yarn and needle in hand how: Ch 91 work 1 in 2d st from hook 1 in each remaining ch ch 1 turn and work 1 in each repeat from rug measures 40 inches Tufting Cut 2-inch strands take 2S strands for each tuft and using cotton yarn sew to outside edge of rug placing the tufts about 1 inch apart Sew a second row about 1 inch above lower row placing the tufts between tufts of 1st row Use steel crochet hook size Another very attractive and easily made rug is a striped oval with scalloped border just finished a couple of red white and blue ones for a room They were easy and quic as lightnking Heavy cotton rug filler was used ana a large wooden crochet hook A Striking Pattern This is a most striking but simple pattren oval in shape with stripes going round and round and a scallopped border with a big puffy popcorn stitch at the end of each scallop The smaller one measuring about 28 inches by 40 inches is good for a starter For best results rug should not be worked tightly All stitches are worked through the back loop only Chain loosely 26 sts First round: Skip 1 ch 4 sc in next ch sc in each of next 23 chs 4 sc in last ch Work back on other side with 1 sc in

to 13: Work 1 sc in each st increasing three times at each end midway between markers Even rounds 4 to 14: Work 1 sc in each st increasing four times at each end at marker pins End round 14 with 1 si
