Hi there,
Here is a simple realistic technique to make shaggy rugs/mats that a good friend taught me.

It is fast ;because you don't have to cut the wool into small pieces and install them one by one.

It uses less thread as you don't have to cut pieces of thread/wool long enough to install comfortably.

It also gives the mat a neat and finished look since you are able to control the length of the threads and don't need to cut or trim them later on *unless necessary *.

******** I got feedback that after washing the thread starts falling off. I haven't experienced that. But I'd recommend you soak it in soap for sometime then rinse it in clean water. I don't recommend washing using a brush. Wash it gently like any other shaggy rug😊
Also that the threads can be easily pulled out. Make the threads to be a reasonable length that can't be pulled out so easily.. Long threads aren't as susceptible as the short ones.
Do not be too rough with the rug☺️.

************

*The mat mesh is around Ksh.350 per 1/4 meter.
*1 ball of yarn/ thread is Ksh. 85 - 90.
* A pack of 6 balls is about ksh. 500.
Buying in bulk is way cheaper.

For a 1 meter mat you will need about 3 to 4 balls of yarn depending on how long you want the threads to be.

*A crochet needle {2.5mm} is ksh. 50
Prices vary depending on the place you are buying from.

If you are in Nairobi, you can get them from river road or biashara street.

I hope you find it helpful.
