I have a lot of work ahead of me.

Those of you that kept up with me on Facebook know I've been working on a latch-hook rug from strips of tshirt material. Being that I work for a company that provides them, and we have sales when they are getting rid of old colors and sizes, I get them really cheap. I stumbled on an article where someone was making one, and thought I'd start collecting various particular shades and make a cool rug.

I have decided to do each grid square as a different color, repeating some as the pattern gets bigger. So far, I've done 6, which is about 55 individual knots per square.

I can already feel it under my toesies!

So what does a crafty guy with time on his hands do when he works for a company that sells bulk tshirts that he gets at significant discount?

Make a rug, of course!
