About half way out to the edges I had to start doing the double so it lays flat. My stips were about 1 1/2 inches, when and if I need to do more they will all be 1 inch or less to make it easier to crochet. This was my learning experience for all of us. lolstellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06134835581418849521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220083341574194792.post-3876382216822165772013-02-04T18:51:12.734-05:002013-02-04T18:51:12.734-05:00Your rug is so pretty, and that you are making it ...Your rug is so pretty, and that you are making it from sturdy material, it should last a long time.

Am impressed with the pattern, and that it is crocheted in place, as you go, rather than needing to hand sew it; surely that too, will prolong the life of your rug. <br /><br />To see how it is done, does make the thought of giving it a try, far less intimidating.
