Technically this is not a difficult rag rug to make if you know how to crochet, especially if you are familiar with circles and the whole increasing scheme that goes along with them.
Using a Q-sized crochet hook with thick fabric strips, however, can become tiresome for the hands, wrists and arms, so taking frequent breaks is highly recommended with this project.
On the other hand, because everything is so large, the rug gets made very quickly!
