Step 3: Coil It - How to make a braided rug by old t-shirt

Start pre coiling your rug. Coil it somewhat gently so it doesn’t pucker up into a braided t-shirt bowl (LOL), but try not to let any gaps show from one ring to the next. Pre coiling this braid will help you stay organized while you are sewing and will also give you an idea of how big your rug is going to be/if you need to add or remove shirts. I was meticulous (read: OCD) about my braid and made sure there was a distinct “top” side and “bottom” side while braiding, so it may be worth mentioning that I pre coiled with the “bottom” side facing up, as that was the side I wanted the stitching to be on.
