Knitted rug in the shape of a heart

Knitted rugs are popular among needlewomen, as they are a very interesting activity and the result is pleasing to the eye. These rugs can be knitted as a gift for a friend, or simply to decorate your interior. This rug is knitted using a crochet hook and three types of yarn. For those who know how to crochet, it will not be difficult to knit such a masterpiece.

-To knit a rug we will need:
-Red yarn
- White yarn,
- White yarn “Mohair”,
-Hook,
-Sewing threads.

So, let's start with the fact that you need to knit a fairly large number of squares from three types of yarn. We take mohair yarn and knit 35 squares from it. We put two loops on the hook and start knitting a chain of 7 loops, then we combine them into a ring and start knitting in a circle, and at the end of knitting we give the part the shape of a square. The squares are obtained with sides of approximately 5 cm.




Take plain white yarn and knit 28 white squares in the same way.




Similarly, you need to knit 28 red squares.



The result will be a slide of colored squares.



We lay out the knitted squares on a flat surface in the shape of a future rug. A table can serve as a flat surface, but the floor is best, since the rug is quite large.



Using sewing thread, we begin to sew the squares to each other. In this case, we start sewing from the center, that is, from simple white squares, then we sew parts from mohair yarn to them, then red squares. Using red yarn and a hook, we tie around the edge of the entire rug. If desired, the mohair yarn squares can be combed to give them significant fluffiness. The width of the rug is about 60 cm, and the length is 65 cm.



Yarn itself is a very warm material. However, I would like to note mohair yarn, which is very fluffy in appearance and also very warm, which is very important for rugs.
