Love crocheting, don´t you like it?
I have a tissue box in each room of my house, so I thought it would be a good decoration idea to make a crochet tissue box cover.

T-shirt Yarn Crochet Carpet

Hi there!

We start new series: "Crocheting".
We start with a T-shirt yarn carpet. As you can see this type of yarn is completely different from wood yarn or perle yarn, and it can be used for making: carpets, baskets, bags...
The way of working this type of yarn is the same as working normal crochet but you will have to use hooks number 12/15 (N/P/Q), depending on the yarn´s thickness.

T-shirt yarn: Mercería Pozas 48
