Springtime Bath Mat - Rug Crochet Tutorial made using Ice Yarns Magic Bulky and Classic Chunky

[@margewerden6675]

Creative Grandma... you are something else!!! You are always doing SO MUCH... for us!!! SO BUSY!!!! I sure hope you know how much I appreciate you!!!! You have helped me through some difficult times. My husband has been in the hospital 4 times in the past 6 weeks. He is in kidney failure, and has congestive heart failure. Whenever I have to sit in the waiting room.... especially during dialysis... I crochet... and I think of all the folks that have helped us during this time. ... and yes, YOU are on that list. I take some of your patterns with me (already in a bag with the pattern, hooks and scissors already in the bag. Just pick one up and I can go.) ... so with that said.... I say THANK YOU WITH ALL MY HEART for what you do for us.... for me!

[@margewerden6675]

I have never used 2 strans of yarn together like this... now, I think I want to make a rug! :)

[@CreativeGrandma]

Marge I have been where you are, I sat at the er for 8 hours just waiting for them to see my dad when he was in congestive heart failure, he has since passed, my mom has kidney diease and I too spend a lot of time at the hospital and always have a crochet project bag with me. It is a life saver to have something to work on when setting so long. My prayers go out to you. Hope your husband gets well soon. Love Creative Grandma

I love this rug pattern. It brings back so many memories of my childhood as this stitch was one of the first decorative stitches I learned. Watching (and copying) my Mamma, I learned how to crochet , knit, needlepoint, latch hook, cook, bake, paint (Acrylics), and, draw,. I have also picked up other crafts over the years since being a child back in the 70's (born in 1968 LOL!). While not an expert at any of those crafts, I love to crochet / knit, and, cook / bake most of all.

I just started this project in ‘ Bernat’ blanket yarn. It’s so beautiful. 🤩 This stitch is great. I’m learning so much. Thanks.

[@louellagallardo-mortensen8030]

Hi did you finish your mat? was also thinking about using Bernat blanket, since it is a bigger yarn do you recommend using a P hook instead of an N? Thanks 😊

[@lisaharris7629]

@@louellagallardo-mortensen8030 yes I finished it. I used a hook up a size recommendation by manufacturer, I'm a 'tight ' crocheter

[@JennySimon206]

Omg that's what I'm doing right now. Holding some velvet yarn or homespun together with it for a rug for my living room. I have several types of black yarns that will look pretty held together. I was going to do a bunch of different mixed media acrylic yarns but now not sure if it should be the same all over. Probably with this pattern. I was gonna do the loop stitch but that looks like a nightmare to clean.

[@artiejohnson703]

These stitch is beautiful. I have some super thick yarn, this would make a beautiful rug. Thank so much for sharing your video with all of us. ❤

[@JennySimon206]

This is exactly what I was looking for. I'm using bernat blanket. I have 3 balls of it. Been trying different stitches. I wanted to do a puff stitch type thing but was struggling with how with the huge yarn. Holding the bernat blanket with another strand of yarn. Either homespun or I also have baby velvet that gives it some shiny texture.

[@katbruno6327]

This rug is beautiful purple and green are my favorite colors

[@MC-kj8uy]

I made this rug a couple of years ago (maybe right after you posted this pattern). My feet are currently on it :) I used a strand of variegated and a strand of solid color, and did the border in the solid. It still looks good. It goes flat a bit after a while (I am a loose crocheter, maybe should have used a smaller hook) but a trip through the washer and dryer and it puffs right back up. I'm really pleased with it.

[@cynthialeegarcia6687]

Lots of pretty Stitch and I can't wait to do it I like the colors and the texture of it and I can make it any color I want to match the decor of the room thanks again for showing us this stitch.

[@cherrilgallagher818]

Beautiful rug pattern thanks Glenda lots of love

[@kristaskraftykreations2694]

I love the soft pastel colors and the the bright yarn! The purpl and grey yarn, iys going to turn out amazing!

[@ruthhingston6939]

Absolutely beautiful!I love the ice yarn.

[@nataliemcgee6250]

Your explanations are great & the filming is wonderfully clear, making it easy to follow. Thank you 💕

[@gailnash298]

I never thought of a crocheted bath mat!!! So much prettier than my shower mat. Love this. I will be doing this for sure! Love the mat, but not in purple. I will probably do it in all white or a light blend of white/beige. I've done the puff stitch in the treble crochet before and it really gobbles up the yarn. That's fine. You are the best!!!! Thanks so much. 💙💚💛💜💕

[@berthaz2583]

Love the rug and appreciate that sometimes you said in this video Yarn over instead of Yarn over the Hook, constantly. Really , really appreciate when you say only: “ yarn over.” Thank you Glenda🌷

[@lindalee9177]

Looks so soft and warm, yet just right for bathroom What a neat project

[@sandrajohn5415]

Lovely mat Glenda, thanks for sharing

[@remedy9648]

Love the rug and adore Ice Yarns! Great project Glenda, thanks for sharing!

[@denisefallen1839]

I like this rug , the colors look like they belong together

[@crochetcafe8002]

The bright colour one is lovely

[@deneennewbill7528]

That's so pretty it makes me want to change the colors in my bathroom to go with the rug!!

[@dimity816]

This is perfect, I have been looking for a mat for my kitchen to stand on while I do my dishes. This is the best idea I have seen giving a little spongy feel when standing. Spring colours would be lots of fun too. Thank you for showing how to make. I have saved the video until I get the yarn.

[@HAPPYBEADER9591]

Super cute I love-love puff stitches 7 the yarn over ones get a little hard to get through. Still love. Thank you. Just lookin to to a rug. I've never done this popcorn Thanks for a new stitch for me. lol even if it's 45 year's crocheting.

[@samanthak5831]

Very beautiful Creative Grandma!

[@severineg8702]

Thank you Creative Grandma! I’m always looking for something new to crochet. This seems fun and easy. I appreciate your time and easily understood instructions. 😁

[@yliberal6355]

Creative Grandma I luv your rug. You absolutely give the best instructions I've watched on KZbin. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful rug video!!

[@pammcreynolds]

Love this rug. I've started mine and hope to finish in a day or two.

[@starrtillman3240]

Oh how pretty is that. Perfect color and great idea. Thank you.....

[@my1raven]

I can't wait till this is finished. I'm moving into a new apartment very soon, and this would look perfect for my bathroom.

[@SecretYarnery]

Great project, Glenda!! That yarn is delicious!! Great idea for a rug with Magic Bulky! Big hugs!!😘😘

[@debbiehunsicker3729]

Gorgeous rug. You make it look so easy. 😊

[@padali29]

This is an awesome rug! Great color combos.

[@marynance2166]

Great tutorial love the colors and you make it seem so easy. However I will try it. Thank you Glenda.💜

[@gwenmortensen3246]

Love the colours you picked, beautiful and so nice and fluffy. Too pretty💕

[@crochetcafe8002]

Loved this rug mam its beautiful

[@TheBizeediva]

Great pattern! I did one using Lion Brand Woolease Thick & Quick in "storm front." I had several balls I'd got on sale. I did find the backing at the Dollar Tree in my area. I use it under my desk to keep my feet warm. I posted a picture to your Facebook Page.

[@lindsay1roman]

Hello. Did I just miss it not sure, the size of your hook? Thank you. Very beautiful!

[@anitakalista2777]

Oh I love this rug. You make I look so easy. Thank you

[@triciabrown5071]

This is very creative, purple is one of my favorite colors!🤩

[@tiwandaford2890]

Love the colors!

[@samanthawalker74]

This is just awesome. Thanks for sharing

[@Cthecool]

That’s really cute! The colors are gorgeous! The stitch choice Excellent! 💜💚

[@sharonoberholzer6929]

The pattern works well too if you alternate bobbles instead of aligning them. That is not putting bobble exactly above each other. Row 2 : SC . Puff stitch repeat Row 3. SC Row 4: SC X2 . Then puff stitch, SC repeat to end and 2 x SC Row 5: SC Repeat row 2 to row 5 This gives alternating puff/bobble Really pretty

[@MC-kj8uy]

That's a good idea, and easy to do. I might try that with the next one.

[@ShirleyBork]

Love this..Am I missed Byrne hook size? Thank you.

[@trishaturner2078]

That is a pretty bathroom rug.

[@ruthhingston6939]

I have started the rug and it's looking great.Your yarn is so beautiful but I need to use loads of leftover yarn and this will be a great project for that.

[@MyEpiphany_92]

Wow!! Lovely project, Glenda! I love the texture of the rug. I just added this to my future projects, my apartment is going to be filled with crocheted items from couch throw, mail organizer, kitchen dishcloths, potholders, toilet cover, and afghans for our bedrooms:)

[@CinnamonStitches]

Great pattern!! I love this idea

[@lalagamma4452]

Thank you for sharing this yummy rug pattern. Stay crafty.❤xo💜xo💙xo💛xo💖xo💚

[@charmurry3585]

Wow beautiful rug. Ty for dollar tree tip, I've never seen those there will have to check. 👍

[@leslieordoyne7884]

Very pretty !!! Love it !!! ❤️❤️Thank you

[@mariab.1997]

A lovely piece but I'm not sure I'd use acrylic for a bath mat. Though with the nonslip, it would be great next to a bed or even atop another carpet next to a bed.

[@lorischreiner1591]

Glenda, love this rug and colors. Thank you Lori Schreiner

[@terripratt6650]

Thank you for this tutorial I made one and came out so nice for such easy pattern

[@nickikreidermacher7164]

Love this pattern, making it right now but using Bernat Maker Home Dec instead just thought for the bathroom you would want cotton for the water. It is also a 5 bulky and I also used 2 strands, turned out wonderful.

[@lauramcquaid5271]

,love this I'm new to your you tube and just love it. You make it look so easy and you do a wonderful job teaching us thank you. Also loved going to ac Moore with you.

[@pamelacroasmun5455]

Honestly the yarn is so inexpensive that the shipping kind of evens out. If you order I believe 150$ it’s free and the yarn is beautiful. Nothing like this at Walmart I promise you that. I love Ice Yarns. Save up or get some other people to go in with you. That’s a good idea to ball the two yarns together. Love all your tutorials, Glenda! Thank you for all you do.

[@dawnoswald2005]

Cant wait to make plenty of these

[@ruthwilliams3834]

THANK YOU THANK YOU! ! I was just wondering how to make a bathmat and a bedside rug 😊I can't wait to get started 💓👏👍 your the BEST

[@CreativeGrandma]

You can increase the width by adding multiples of 2 and repeat the rows until you get to desired length

[@dawnbaker9274]

Can't wait to do this but will probably use cotton. Trying to move away from synthetic fibers. 👍💖

[@muttyism]

That rug mat looks pretty great work

[@debbiehunsicker3729]

I just finished mine last night, love it! Thanks for the video ❤️

[@ericabates5361]

Hello Glenda, this Rug is Gorgeous 😁 love the colour you used 💚💜💕😋 Erica x

[@anitaashley8946]

I think cotton would probably absorb better but it would have to be a nice one to be as pretty as that one is. The colors were great together. Very good teacher!♥️💥🌈

[@KayWhite1]

Love this!!! Thank you for sharing.

[@mrose9291]

Thank you so much for the tutorial.. I love it.. This what am looking for.. So beautiful.. 👍👍

[@grancriner7346]

You are such a great instructor. I rate you up there with Very Pink who teaches knitting. I believe she is in Austin, Texas.

[@aprilbreland8817]

Can you do this with cotton yarn?

[@aprilbreland8817]

Cool I’d like to make one for the bathroom. Thank you

[@mmitchell3439]

Beautiful ❤️

[@music4evrbooks4life15]

I saw this tutorial and instantly wanted to make it! But I will be using non-ice yarn. I think it would be so fluffy if you were to use chenille yarn or mohair.

[@pampreast9921]

Love this....Hope I can try this one soon....I have 3 WIPs 😀 TFS

[@purpledreamcatcher64]

Do you have a similar matching pattern for pedestal mat? I would love to make a matching one. Thankyou for this lovely clear video.

[@cherylheming1714]

This mat is very nice, thank you for the tip where to buy the rug backing.

[@berthalloway9953]

I am going to have to take my time doing this one. Thank you for this pattern

[@murielledavid8850]

Thank you, very well explained.

[@michellefryar518]

I love this pattern. Is it ok to use 100% acrylic yarn or better to use 100% cotton yarn or a cotton blend?

[@glennavance3100]

Very pretty.

[@lauracore7574]

I do not have ice yarn can I used another kind thinking of bernat baby blanket yarn since so soft or any acrylic yarn. Thank you for taking time out reading the comments

[@Julie-oj5xm]

Hi Glenda, Love the rug pattern. I would like to make it bigger can you tell me the multiple please. Thanks.

[@rainbowcreationsbydeniseco7570]

I like that rug very cute

[@YarnRealm]

They look really nice I like any yarn with the color green 😂

[@ToxSica]

Yesss green is the best xD

[@sexy59red]

just beautiful ! are you suppose to sew backing on rug or just lay underside it?

[@donyaw.1453]

Glenda, did you have to attach the underlay to your rug? If so what did you use. I really like this rug. Thank you for the tutorial.

[@rondamoomaw6814]

Love it I need to save money for this one next project

[@3amcrafter]

Beautiful!

[@Debbie2004]

Beautiful rug I would like to make one for my bathroom

[@debrasimmons2122]

How are u doing. I just want to know Know where can I get the ice yarn because those colors are very beautiful and I would love to buy some. And like the way u show how to make several items so much easyier. Thank u

[@jetbossard7923]

Ok so how did you attach the rubber Mat underneath it?

[@lesleyoliver5582]

I love it. Thank you. 🐨🐨

[@ejsgilliland]

Great pattern ! I was a little disappointed that you didn't show what method you used to add the backing on to it! You maybe should show for new and old crocheters what's the best way to add?

[@melodymaben5365]

Have to use that yarn ?

[@hellofromUSA062]

Lovely rug. Um. Exactly how do you add the backing to the rug???

[@esthermathenjwa5671]

Gorgeous but how to inset the underlay

[@genevastevens4937]

How did you attach the nonslip underlay

[@craftychic19]

I love the color and rug, question is it ok to use Acrylic for the bathroom due to the wetness in the bathroom?

[@sallyannmales4676]

How do you both ends of a ball without twisting yarn

[@helentrent8526]

I love this rug, what kind of thread did you use to sew on the backing? Regular thread, some sort of cord or yarn or etc.?

[@karenmcbride1073]

Did you sew on the non slip or glue

[@ElizabethAlvarez-ck4vl]

What type of crotchety needle is that
