Overall progress
Overall tufting progress is not the simple average of the five area percentages.

Choose a rug by its shape, yarn requirement and color layout. Simple Mat offers a one-area start, while Inset Heart, Paw Print and Moon and Stars let you give different parts of the pattern contrasting colors.

Rug designs include Simple Mat, Inset Heart, Cloud Bands, Arched Stripes, Paw Print, Spotted Mushroom, and Moon and Stars. Simple Mat is Level 0 and needs one yarn portion for one area. Inset Heart costs 40 cash to unlock and needs two portions, one for Border and one for Heart. Finish every design in your current level to open the next level. Find Halloween patterns through the Halloween filter in Choose a Design.

Choose a Design menu with level filters, a locked Level 4 counter and separate mastery progress.
Browse Rug Designs and Requirements

In Choose a Design, use All, Halloween, or the Level 0–4 filters to browse patterns. Select a design to view its requirements and mastery before choosing Start Tufting.

Choose a Pattern for the Rug You Want to Make

  • Simple Mat: Choose this for a straightforward rug using one yarn portion and one area. Its rounded rectangle keeps the color layout simple.
  • Inset Heart: Choose this when you want an inner heart and a surrounding color block. Assign yarn separately to Border and Heart.
  • Cloud Bands: Choose this for a cloud silhouette with horizontal stripes. Look for the blue-and-cream menu preview.
  • Arched Stripes: Choose this for curved bands within an arch shape. Its menu preview uses terracotta and cream.
  • Paw Print: Choose this for strong contrast between the outer shape and the main and toe pads.
  • Spotted Mushroom: Choose this when you want to arrange colors across a cap, stem and three spots.
  • Moon and Stars: Choose this for a background, crescent and three stars, with separate areas that help you organize the celestial details.

For specific yarn assignments and optional edging colors, use the rug color combinations.

Buy a Design and Unlock the Next Level

Buy Inset Heart

  1. Approach the Tufting Frame and use Make a Rug to open Choose a Design.
  2. Select Inset Heart, then hold its unlock control to spend 40 cash.
  3. Choose Start Tufting and assign two yarn portions: one to Border and one to Heart.

Buying the design unlocks the pattern; you still need its yarn before you can begin. If you have only one portion, collect another portion and fill both assignments.

Open the next design level

Finish every design in the current level to open the next level. If Level 4 is locked, work through the designs in your current level and follow the completion counter beside the level unlock.

That counter tracks level progression separately from the medal progress on each design. Repeatedly making one pattern increases that pattern's mastery; it does not replace finishing the other designs required for the next level. See mastery bonuses and remaining rugs for medal targets and progress calculations.

Choose a Design menu with level filters, a locked Level 4 counter and separate mastery progress.

Read Pattern Areas Without Overcounting Yarn

Pattern areas tell you where colors go and which parts still need tufting. Read the yarn requirement separately: the number of areas is not a yarn-portion total, and several areas can share a color.

For example, Moon and Stars has five areas but supports a three-color setup: Indigo Denim for Sky, Cherry for Crescent, and Marigold for the stars. Here, Sky names the background area; it is separate from the yarn named Sky.

For Inset Heart, Border is a yarn-filled part of the heart pattern. Assign a portion to it during yarn selection. The later Add a Border? prompt applies optional edging around the finished rug and is a separate step.

Watch the individual progress indicators for small details. Paw Print tracks each toe pad separately; Spotted Mushroom tracks each spot; Moon and Stars tracks each star. Finishing a large background does not finish those smaller areas.

Overall tufting progress is not the simple average of the area percentages. A Moon and Stars rug can read 89% overall with Sky at 100%, Crescent at 98%, and all three stars at 0%. Use each area's indicator to find what remains. If a yarn prompt appears, switch to the yarn assigned to the area your tool is touching.

Follow the rug-making guide for the full tufting, shaving and edging steps, or choose a layout from the color combinations.
