#BETTERTHANARUG - A THREE DIMINISIONAL RUG

January 13th 2018

When I started this journey all I wanted to do was make a rug.  The only rule I set for myself was I didn't want it to be woven.

​

Oddly enough I've never successfully finished a rug but as my skills grew I started thinking a woven seat would be a fun challenge but how to make it strong-enough so that it doesn't stretch over time.

​

Answer - use the rope of one of the strongest climbers in the world Chris Sharma.  

​

Just Kidding It was about design and brute force, although I wasn't kidding about one of the ropes having once belonged to Chris Sharma.
