Trying to Crochet a Bath Mat
It’s been a while(=a few weeks) since I did any handcrafts but it was time to jump back in with a crochet project. When it comes to handcrafts, I’m a knitter first, and then I sometimes dabble in other crafts which I haven’t excelled in yet because I do them so rarely.
We were, in my opinion, in dire need of a new mat for the bathroom because the one there now is a round crochet mat, but the space is narrow and rectangular. I got me 2 kilos of the same trusty yarn I have used for crochet interior textiles before, and found my 8mm hook.
I first started and failed a couple time in trying to make a simple rectangular mat with some rows of holes. Do excuse me for my poor explonation, I have no idea what the terms in crochet would be in English.
As you can see from the picture below, I did not do well. I unraveled this mat twice but couldn’t get the edges looking nice and even. I’m in need of a @crosheille in my life! How do you get the edges even and looking nice!?
I took a breather and decided on a different design I knew I could execute well. I’m basically doing the same-ish technigue I have used for making a round mat, but with doing three stitches (are they called stitches in crochet?) into one in each corner to make a rectangular shape. I’m most definitely just eyeballing everything so I’m just hoping my mat will end up being a good size.
Obviously with each round the mat gets both longer and wider. I have a long space so my aim is to just get the right width and be fine with what ever lenght it will be by them. I am afraid I might need to pop into the store again for one more kilo of yarn because this ones takes a lot of it. I know if I just stick with it and make it big enough, I’ll be happy with the finished products. The previous mat while a lot smaller and round is quite heavy and durable so it’s very nice and practical in use.
They told me if I killed myself now it would save the lives of countless others.
Saying the longer I wait to kill myself the more people will suffer.
They are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 years. I know there are many in prison that dont deserve to be there because of this. Your stay in prison will not be fun @battleaxe and friends. People are going to want you dead when they find out what you did. I hope you die a slow painful death. You sick mother fuckers.

Its a terrorist act on American soil while some say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic and foreign threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and tell them about the day you asked me why. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control with ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers from telling the truth?
Lovely thanks for sharing @eveuncovered
Good for you!! I usually crochet circular rugs out of old sheets. Since I am also a knitter and dabble a little here and there with crochet, I don't have a pattern for the rugs. It's always an adventure! I am looking forward to seeing the project completed!
