When I was looking at different rag rug designs, I found a few that were woven by using a plain weave, so I have included some plain weave sections in my strip to make the knotted sections more spaced out.

Making my designs
I found the making parts to be the most fun in a project. I have used chicken wire to form the bases of my designs, and then I have used the rag rug technique to create a textured surface. The wire scratched me a lot, and I probably could have saved a bit of time if I had cut all of the strips of fabric the same length so I didn't have to trim the design at the end.
