Hand knit a chunky circle rug with me!
In this video I’m using YarnBee from Hobby Lobby but you can use Bernat Blanket Big or any yarn you want.
These circle rugs and blankets and more are all available to buy on my website www.offbyheartdesign.com

Happy knitting!

thank you for the tutorial! i've tried following many other tutorials, but yours was the only one that allowed me to successfully (somewhat) craft the round rug i've been wanting to try! it's not as beautiful as yours, but hopefully with practice, it will look better.

[@abrewes]

you're so welcome!!! Everything takes practice. I find that setting it on the floor once in a while helps with the shaping of it.

❤sooo pretty and thank you for teaching slowly ❤

[@mangojuice5667]

thank you so so much for this, i bought a bunch of this exact type of yarn and thought i'd totally be able to follow a tutorial on youtube but after following a couple others and only ending up with tight yarn/ knots this is the only one i've been able to follow so thank you so much!! :')

[@offbyheartdesign]

yay! I'm so happy it helped!

[@dianatzudik4350]

i love my rug! i used a hairclip as a stitch marker

[@Tjj36]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I've had the same yarn forever planning to make a rug but never knew how. It was so easy to learn from you, thanks! ❤

[@ritanorton8]

Wow so Beautiful I can't wait to make mine thanks so much

[@nerryjimenez6530]

Thank you so much! It is lovely and you are very easy to follow! Blessings, Nerry Jimenez

This seems really fun! I wonder if it would work as a rag rug - as in, if the yarn was homemade from old clothes 🤔 it would be a great way to reuse them!

[@TheCHELLCANTEY]

This is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing the technique. I saw another video where the person recommended that the single crochet stitches be done in the back loops to help the rug lay flatter. Would that work here as well?

I want to make a circular rug for my 2 cats it looks cozy😻😻

[@whyamihereeee]

only bought one thing of yarn to see if i could learn this quickly for fun and ran out before the 10 minute mark :( i’m hooked though so i’ll be getting more yarn asap

[@OfficalBarneyPlayz]

this worked thanks

[@titayo319]

Oh yeahhh.. Nice! If I have the time I try that one👍 15:00

Thank you so much! I’m making a mushroom hat for Halloween that requires a circle hand knit piece like this. Do you know how you could crochet in circles for the mushroom?

[@offbyheartdesign]

unfortunately, I don't but check out Simply Maggie's KZbin channel, she's got great videos, so she might have something on there!

[@cannalove5043]

Thank you sooo much 💚💚💚

[@offbyheartdesign]

you're welcome!

[@emmamelgar4529]

Thank youuuuu🥰

[@Lurah101]

I did all the step 1 but is just not going around

[@FancyOnce]

Can you please do a tutorial on how to make a heart rug like that?

[@terradurbin19]

Can you use a smaller yarn to make it a tighter knit?

[@offbyheartdesign]

absolutely! Check out Simply Maggie to see how she the circle rug.

How would you change the color of you wanted to do multiple colors?

[@taylorbradley1998]

I have just started doing these. I find it easier to use a lighter and fuse them together that way. You would light the end of the current yarn you are working with and the start of the new yarn together. They should fuse together and you can start with the new color. You don’t have to burn a lot just the tip of the yarn.

[@melehokolata5187]

No matter how many times I retry it doesn’t lay flat and I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong 😭

[@KailaWillison-cole]

Could be your stitches are too tight try doing them looser

[@leekhold5210]

How many spools did you use for the rug?

[@abrewes]

I actually can't remember but you'll need 5-10 depending on the size and the bigger it gets the less you get out of each roll of yarn.

[@selma.hamour]

Where do I get the yarn from?

[@offbyheartdesign]

Michaels

[@kimberlydavenport2972]

JoAnn Fabric, I just bought some from there last night.

[@andreavaldez3880]
