I'm looking for a book on making crochet rugs from fabric. I've seen it done on YouTube, but I need something in writing. I can't find anything on Amazon. I looked at Joanns and Michaels. Or maybe someone can tell me...what size needles? How wide do you make your strips of fabric? How many stitches do you first cast on?

This company has been around for years!!!

and if you Google toothbrush rugs you find all the information you could ever want.

Big hook! I think the number of stitches depends on the pattern. It has been years... Live Laugh Download Stitch!

Thanks for these links! They gave me all the info I needed. Guess I really don't need a book! I just printed the info out.
