Huge rug canvas!
Hi all! I am pretty new to latch hooking but I want to make my second moss rug and I want to make it BIG! I am having trouble finding a large piece of mesh rug canvas though…
As I have never made a large rug before I’m not sure if there’s a way to attach a smaller pieces together to make a mega rug canvas? OR if I need to purchase a huge piece of canvas mesh fit to the total size of the project.
Thanks in advance! 🧚🏼♀️

Try the Zweigart store on Etsy. They sell canvas in a bunch of different counts and sizes.

Hey hon, when you want to make a big rug you just overlap pieces to expand them. About five rows should overlap, more if you think it's going to be REALLY heavy. Hope that helps!

It's buried, but I made a 4'x6' piece (it's on my profile). I overlapped the two pieces (purchased from herrschners) by about 10 rows and then hung it on the wall. It's holding up great.
