This is a great idea! I have never thought about using t-shirt fabric and a loom to make a rug. There's always old t-shirts in my son's clothing and worn out ones in my husband's chest of drawers. This is excellent. I see a project in my future, great for a winter craft. This will make soft yet sturdy rugs.

I love this, but I dont have a straight loom. I guess I have an excuse to go buy one now! This rug looks so thick and comfy. It would be great in front of the kitchen sink. Much nicer than standing on the bare floor while doing the dishes.
