Sweatshirt Patch Rug in Every Color of the Rainbow

Rainbow Color Patch Rug from Old Sweatshirt

Making rugs or mats from fabric scraps is a nice way to recycle your old clothes. I featured two similar projects on my site before.

The main difference of the projects is how to connect the fabric scraps. The first one uses sewing method, while the second one uses crochet method.

Today I am excited to feature another one that uses a knitting loom. I really like the design of this rug with rainbow color patches that look so bright and colorful. Let’s try it!
