You can use this technique to make a rag rug in any size you like.<\/p>\n<p>Of course the bigger your rug the more jeans you&#8217;ll need. Just to give you an idea, this little mat is made from 2 pairs of large loose fit men&#8217;s jeans.

If you have jeans that are in good wearable condition, consider donating. I only cut up old clothing if it&#8217;s too far gone for charity donations.<\/p>\n<p>Often charities get lots of unwearable items donated to them that they then have to dispose of at great cost. If you don&#8217;t have any old jeans piling up in your wardrobe, maybe you can have a chat with the local thrift shop and take some un-sellable holey, damaged or stained jeans off their hands for a few dollars. WIN-WIN!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-59374\" src=\"https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_21.jpg\" alt=\"Scrap denim rainbow rag rug - mypoppet.com.au\" width=\"690\" height=\"1035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_21.jpg 690w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_21-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_21-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_21-330x495.jpg 330w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_21-307x460.jpg 307w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 690px) 100vw, 690px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve used lots of left over cotton yarn scraps in a range of colours for this project. Cotton yarn is idea because quite sturdy and doesn&#8217;t stretch like wool or acrylic yarn can. Thinner yarn can be doubled up.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have scrap yarn, I&#8217;d estimate that you&#8217;ll need 2-3 50g balls (but that&#8217;s just a guess).<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t like the rainbow look? Opt for the same coloured yarn all over.<\/p>\n<p>Crocheting over a fabric core is one of my favourite techniques. I&#8217;ve used it to make a bigger <a href=\"https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/coil-crochet-scrap-fabric-rug-diy\/\">round scrap fabric rug<\/a> and some <a href=\"https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/crochet-coiled-rainbow-basket\/\">small rainbow baskets<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In the past I&#8217;ve used thinner fabric which has worked fine, but the sturdy denim is a real game-changer and I can&#8217;t wait to make some bigger baskets with this crochet technique.

It&#8217;s also a good ideas to alternate the areas in the rows where you&#8217;ve joined the ends so the joined &#8216;thicker&#8217; areas are spread throughout the rug. You can see in the picture above where the joins are as the denim core is a bit lumpier. If you want to avoid the lumps, just taper off the ends of the denim strips slightly to reduce the bulk of the fabric.<\/p>\n<h3>Finishing Off<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-59370\" src=\"https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_16.jpg\" alt=\"Crochet Denim Rag Rug - mypoppet.com.au\" width=\"690\" height=\"493\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_16.jpg 690w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_16-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_16-600x429.jpg 600w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_16-330x236.jpg 330w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_16-644x460.jpg 644w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 690px) 100vw, 690px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>15. Once your rug is the desired size, here&#8217;s how to finish off the last row. Stop crocheting about 7cm\/3&#8243; from the end and fold denim strip over on itself, tucking any raw ends inside (you may need to cut the strip). The crochet to the edge firmly over the doubled over area. When you reach the last stitch sc once or twice onto the row below. Break yarn and tie off firmly. Weave in any remaining yarn ends.<\/p>\n<h3>All done!<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-59371\" src=\"https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_17.jpg\" alt=\"Upcycled Denim Rag Rug - mypoppet.com.au\" width=\"690\" height=\"493\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_17.jpg 690w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_17-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_17-600x429.jpg 600w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_17-330x236.jpg 330w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/denim-rag-rug_17-644x460.jpg 644w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 690px) 100vw, 690px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Congratulations!
