How To Crochet The Round Crochet Rug
The Round Rug Pattern is worked from the center outwards, starting wit ha magic ring. It is worked in turning rounds, with slip stitch at the end of each round and turning chains to start the next round.
Each round the stitch count increases by 10 stitches, making sure you will have a crochet rug that lays flat on the floor. The number of stitches on each round starts with 10, while at the end you’ll have long rounds of up to 590 stitches.
There’s no special stitches, you will only need to know the double crochet stitch, as well as chains and slip stitches.
Throughout the pattern there’s multiple changes of color to create the crochet stripes.
Yarn For The Circle Crochet Rug
The suggested yarn for this crochet rug pattern is 24/7 cotton from Lion Brand Yarn. It’s a sturdy 4 medium cotton yarn that can withstand a lot of wear and tear.
Crochet rugs can also be made with t-shirt yarn or fabric yarn, like this crochet doormat, and would also work great for a round crochet rug like this. If you go with that option, you most likely will have a perfect rug with less rounds to crochet, as t-shirt yarns often are super bulky weight yarn.
The circle crochet rug can easily be made with any colors and color combinations. Pick the colors that works for your home. Maybe soft colors for a nursery rug or a contrasting color for a fresh new look.
Grab a load of leftover yarn from other projects and work with each color until you run out, then attach a new color.

How Long Does It Take To Crochet That?
How long it takes to crochet something varies depending on your skill & how fast you crochet. But that isn’t a helpful answer is it?
Well, I’ve developed a yarn calculator to help you get the answer to this question.
It will help you calculate exactly how much time you’ll spend crocheting a project.
All you need to know is how much yarn you will use on the project in either meters, yards or skeins. Then crochet your test square & time it.
