A Rope Door Mat


It's done! it's nice and cushy on the feets too. A picture was too much trouble so I drew a graphic in Paint to explain the procedure. It took a little patience but it was worthwhile to re use a retired rope. First arange a doubled rope like the first sketch, roughly 2 1/2 feet by 2 1/2 feet in loose rows. then weave the loose ends over and under alternating with each new row of 2. When it gets close to the end go back and push the woven rows tight against each other and weave in some more. Mine ended up lopsided so it pays to keep all ends uniform. Maybe a wooden form would be better. heres another tip: dont eat Cheetos while posting. The keyboard gets orange and funky.
