Make a rag rug reusing textiles

Make a functional and unique rag rug using textiles that would otherwise be thrown out.

In this workshop, you’ll weave a small rag rug using reuse materials for a fun, sustainable, and social afternoon of creativity.

Braided rag rugs have been appearing all over social media recently as a fun way to upcycle old t-shirts into something beautiful and useful - but these fast and versatile techniques have been around for generations.

Choose from our reuse fabrics for your woven stripes and learn the steps to create your very own braided rag rug to accent any room in your home.

One of the greatest draws is that you don’t need much specialist equipment, which means once you learn the techniques, you can continue making gorgeous rag rugs for all the spaces in your home. The flexible designs mean as long as you choose colours you love, you'll likely end up with a rug you adore.
