Fold towels in half and cut them into one-inch strips. For a medium-sized rug, you’ll need about 13 strips.2. Take a strip in each color and stitch the ends together.3. Once they’re sewn together, braid the three strips. To hide the raw edges of the strips you can fold the ends underneath.4. Connect and sew three more strips onto the now braided strip. Continue braiding until you’ve used all strips and have one long braid.5. Start to coil the rug on the floor and shape it into a rug as you sew the rug together. It should turn into a circular rug.Finally, sew the ends together - et voilá!
