We make a woven bath mat in a simple way

In today's craft we bring you a idea to make with our homemade loom: a colorful woven bath mat. You will see that it is very simple to do, it only takes a little time.

Can we see how to do it?

Materials that we will need to make our carpet

  • Homemade loom
  • T-shirt of colors or wool for work of which it is soft

Hands on craft

  1. First of all let's take our homemade loom or do it in a moment if you don't have it done. You can see how to do it very easily here.
  2. We will arrange the threads of the warp playing with different colors of wool For work, in my case I have used two shades of pink, alternating between them by blocks.

  1. Once this is done, we begin to pass the weft between the warp and weaving our rug in a simple weave style. We will make sure We will tighten the plot passes between them so that the fabric remains tight and well fixed.

  1. Once we have finished passing the plot filling the entire loom, little by little we will loosen the threads of the warp caught between cuts. We will release two weft threads and knot them between them, we will release another two and tie. We will continue like this until I finish loosening the threads of both parts of the warp. We can trim the fringes to make them even or keep knotting until the fringes are finished and we will trim the excess.

  1. If you have used some type of thread that can fray, you can comb it to undo it in a pile of threads that will give the appearance that our carpet is finished in pompoms.

And ready! You can try different models to make your rugs. You can even use strips of old towels as threads if you want the rug to be for the bathroom.

I hope you cheer up and do this craft.
