Question from Lisa
Hello Debra, I was wondering if you could suggest a natural or one of the ‘safer’ non-natural twines or yarns that someone could use for an outdoor doormat. I would like to have something that didn’t mildew or mold, since I am sensitive to mold and I have heard that sisal can be bad when it gets wet. Any ideas?
Thank you so much!
Debra’s Answer
I’ve never made an outdoor doormat. If you could send me some possibilities you are considering, I could review the materials, but I don’t even know where to begin with this.
I purchase my doormats, which are usually recycled rubber. I’ve given up on natural fibers because it rains so much here in Florida that they just fall apart.
Readers, any experience with this?
