Here's the new one, it measures 18x25, with the fringe its 31.
Made with Bernat chunky yarn. Working on the matching one that
will be bigger, like an area rug about 3' x 4'.

You sure whip those together quick! Very nice!! I bet you could sell a lot of those! Match them to people's interior RV's.

I'd order one from her in red and light yellow, but just as sure as the sun comes up every morning Chewy or Sam would puke on it! Or the BF's Maltese would pee on it. Oh yeah, he SAYS they're house trained.....

yep, all crochet, was actually very easy as it was just single crochet straight across.
Doing the fringe was more time consuming. I do alot of my work sitting on my bus
or in the drivers lounge during my down time. Beats hitting the snack machine just
for something to do. I really like working with that big chunky rug yarn as compared
to the little baby yarns for baby afghans. Color varities are hard to come by with rug yarn
though so I'm thinking of learning the art of yarn dying.
