Notes

These rugs took some time to weave due to rag preparation. I dismantled 20 men's dress shirts and cut them into 2 inch strips. Then the strips were sewn together.

I like the end view of the rolled rugs fresh off the loom because it shows the shirt colors so well. The first rug was mostly from white shirts with a few striped ones. The next three rugs went progressively to the darker colored and striped shirts. It is always fun to mix rag colors.

One of the rugs shows an experimental bit of inlay. I don't think it is very effective and may pick it out.

Overall these were a lot of work. But I like this design and will tie another color way to this warp.
