The Hygge Rug is a comforting, easy knit. Find a soft bulky
yarn, or combine several strands of worsted and make your own bulky yarn. It’s
easily adaptable to other sizes but you’ll always get a useful, easy-to-wash
rug. And it's free.
Enjoy!!

Hygge Rug
Flagstone Rug
I designed this pattern for the project in a knitting class that recycled tee shirts for yarn. It's a free pattern for an introductory period.
Knit in a simple slip stitch pattern that produces a firm, strong rug that won’t curl, this recycling-friendly project lets you use up old tee shirts with very little worry about stains or holes. It’s easily adaptable to other sizes but you’ll always get a useful, easy-to-wash rug. Two patterns are provided. The Original Flagstone pattern (top photo) and a Garter Flagstone (middle and bottom photos). Instructions for making tee yarn are also included.
Enjoy!!

Hygge Head & Wrist Warmers
A relaxing knit project which doesn't take a lot of yarn or time. Would make great gifts. Inspired by the book, **Hygge, A guide to happy living with recipes and tips** that says, "hygge makes life better in the simplest of ways".
A simple rolled edge, straight knitting, basic decreases for a good fit, you can truly enjoy the process as well as the finished product. And it's free!
I used a couple of stashed yarns - a merino and a gifted alpaca hank from a girlfriend who used to raise alpacas. The combination made a heathered blend that is soft and comfortable.
