Braided Rug

Krparica od pletenica

Supplies – potrebno je:

a piece of sturdy canvas for base of your rug (you can choose any size you like) – parce cvrstog platna za podlogu krparice (velicinu izaberite po vasoj zelji i potrebi)

plenty of scrap fabric to rip and braid (choose colors that coordinate and fit your space) – mnogo tkanine za secenje traka i pletenje (izaberite boje koje ce se uklopiti u prostor za koji se planira krparica)

black yarn – crna vunica

a tapestry needle – tapetarska igla

scissors – makaze

fabric glue – lepak za tkaninu

tape – lepljiva traka

How to make – kako napraviti:

1.      Choose your rug size and cut the canvas base piece to size - izeberite velicinu krparice i isecite osnovu

2.      Rip long strips of fabric. Each braid needs to be about 2.5 feet longer than the length of your base piece – isecite duge trake platna. Svaka traka treba biti duza za 76 cm duza od osnove

3.      Braid enough ropes to completely cover the mat – upletite dovoljno pletenica da pokrijete celu osnovu

4.      Tape the ends of each rope for easy access later – krajeve pletenica zalepite lepljivom trakom da se ne bi rasplitale

5.      When you are done braiding glue your braids to the mat. Leave an even amount of braid hanging over the edge of each side – kad ste ispleli dovoljno pletenica zalepite ih lepkom na osnovu. Ostavite sa svakog kraja visak pletenica za "rese"

6.      Use the black yarn and a tapestry needle to stitch along the edges of the rug base, tacking down each braid – uzmite crnu vunicu i tapetarskom iglom zasijte pletenice za osnovu tako da lepo pricvrstite svaku pletenicu

      7.   Remove the ends of each braid after the yarn line. Trim the edges – uklonite lepljivu traku i     raspletite pletenice do linije vunice

 

And enjoy in your own Braided Rug – i uzivajte u svojoj krparici od pletenica.
