This is a rug we use for muddy shoes. It is easily rinsed clean and drip dried.
Approximate Time: Approx. 2 hours
Begin crocheting in an oval shape and continue until it is the desired size.
I wanted this rug for our shoes so it is long and narrow. I used single crochet for the first row, then moved into double crochet stitches.

This site has patterns for all sorts of things recycled:
you don't really need a pattern just start crocheing in a chain and go back and fourth or in a circle its really easy my grandmother used to make these rugs all the time out of bread wrappers and even panty hose there great for the outside at the door,
