Rag rug

My rag rug is completed. Its a nice thick one.  8 feet by 2.5 feet.

What went into it?
3 zip up fleeces - grey, black, blue
2 pullover thin fleeces - maroon, navy
2 thin green wool jumpers
1 green long floaty cardigan
1 pink jersey material nightdress
1 pink wool scarf
1 pink jersey T shirt
1 multi floral jersey material blouse
1 brown short cardigan
1 husband's grey sweat shirt
1 red button up cardigan with a high neck

The fleece materials could be cut into 1" strips, the jersey more like 3" wide as it rolls into itself and the knitted wool about 1.5" to 2" depending on its thickness as it folds into half and plaits nicely.

I found the best combination for plaiting was 1 strand of fleece, 1 strand of woolly material, 1 strand of jersey.  This also allowed for more colour combinations.

Got some thin strips left but no more fleece. I am going to stop there as I wanted the thickness and stability of the fleece material. Stitched it up with very strong thread.
