There are many tutorials online, I took tips from them all.
Basically, tear the bed sheets into strips and crochet them as if they were yarn (very very thick yarn). You need a very very large crochet hook. This can be done in any pattern, but I like circles. (And of course you can use any scrap fabric you can find. I used polyester blends but I hear cotton is best.)
I found a book on weaving and found a large picture frame, some nails, some string, material, a couple of big dowels, and made this rug.
