Ta Da! A Finish

I really wanted to get the crochet rug completed, so that Mick could actually use it while watching the footy on the tele.

Having the motorcycle races to watch really gave me the opportunity to push it along. See the previous post.  

I had kind of planned to add nine rows of half treble moss stitch in a few different greys that I had in my stash, grading from mid to light to dark to light to mid.  Well, in the end I felt that the dark grey framed it nicely and called it quits at that.

Ta da.  It’s far from perfect, but was a fun make for a utilitarian rug.  I really love the texture of the corner to corner crochet, giving a nice, thick, snuggly feel.  There may be another in the making at some stage in the future.
