That's such a simple stitch for such a wonderful rug! The yarn listed is kind of out of my budget, though, so I wonder if using two or three strands of worsted weight, maybe even in different colors, would work? It probably wouldn't look or feel quite as good, but I'd have a better chance of actually making the rug.

Hi paver2, there is something to note here. The instructions above are not correct - the pattern was designed for a jumbo yarn, which is weight 7, usually sold as blanket yarn. That said, you could imitate the jumbo weight by using at least 3 strands of worsted weight together. If you have enough yarn, 4 strands together would be even better. Of course that means a lot of yarn, but the rug comes out very plush that way.

This rug looks so cozy. As soon as you get out of bed, your feet will be happy when they land on this knit rug. The neutral color will also look great in any room. It's an added bonus that this pattern is perfect for beginners.
