    This is a rug for Bethany's bedroom for her Birthday. I started with the Mandala style island rug pattern then kept adding rows until it was big enough.

    • material-yarn
      Luxury Aran Yarn - Raspberry 2.0 balls

        For rows with dk (pink and purple) I used four strands, for the aran wool (raspberry) I used three. That worked out about equal, more or less. Basically use whatever works. :)

        It's very satisfying because it grows so quickly with the huge hook and multiple strands. Plus it's great to snuggle under as you are making it!
