10 Bath Mat Crochet Patterns

Have you ever considered making a rug? You can crochet a bath mat with these 10 great patterns! An absorbent rug in the bathroom helps keep the floor dry and safe. From basic to bobbled, the secret to a handmade bat mat is in the yarn. Each of these patterns gives recommendations, but most involve cotton yarn of some kind. The cotton soaks up water and washes easily, while a blend of other materials prevents your rug from stretching.

And while most of these patterns were designed with the bathroom in mind, you can crochet a rug for anywhere in your home!
