Could someone please tell me how this is made I'm braiding and crocheting rugs but I can't for the life of me understand how this design can be made.What hook that's used?

I see this image is from this Round Rag Rug Etsy listing where it states it made out of upcycled T-shirts, so I'm guessing it's hook size roughly between N-Q (9-16mm) though this of course depends on the rags used.
In terms of technique used it's hard to tell, to me it looks most similar to this seamless spiral crochet.

Well to me it appears to be seven stitches. Then there's that v loop and then another one is added and I'm guessing that there's a middle part that all of these are attached to and then sewn together. That's what I was hoping someone would help me with. Do you think it would be put together that way?
I'm thrilled to assist with your rug-making journey! Let's delve into the mesmerizing world of braided and crocheted rugs.
Understanding the Design
For a braided and crocheted rug, the design can often involve creating a series of braided strands that are then stitched or crocheted together. This can give a more dimensional texture compared to typical crocheted rugs.
Crochet Hooks and Materials
Hook Size
The appropriate crochet hook size often depends on the thickness of the material you're using. Thick t-shirt yarn or cloth strips usually require a larger hook, like an N (9mm) or larger. Adjust according to the tightness of the stitch you desire.
Materials
Common materials include fabric strips, t-shirt yarn, or rope. Each provides a unique texture and weight to the finished rug.
Steps to Creating Your Rug
Braid Strands
Begin by cutting strips of your fabric or using t-shirt yarn. Braid these strips into several long strands.
Crochet the Braids
Once your braids are ready, use a crochet hook to stitch them together. This can be done in a spiral pattern, starting from the center, or in rows, depending on your design.
Variations
Adding different colors or textures within the braids or using different crochet stitches to attach the braids can add interest to your rug.
Braid and crochet your way to beautiful creations! I can't wait to see the wonderful rug you create. Happy crafting! 🌟

Creating an iris fold outline on card from an image involves a blend of design and precision. Here's a streamlined approach to help you cut with clarity.
1. Image Preparation
Select your image and make sure it's suitable for vectorizing. High-contrast images with clear lines work best. Use a tool like Creative Fabrica's Vectorizer to convert your image into an SVG file.
2. Editable Design
Once your image is vectorized, use design software to simplify the lines, if necessary. Separate the outline part of the image that you want to cut.
3. Craft Cutting
Load the SVG into a cutting machine if you have one, or print it at the desired size for manual cutting. For a machine like a Cricut or Silhouette, ensure the lines are set to 'cut'. For manual cutting, use a craft knife and cutting mat to carefully follow the outline.
4. Iris Fold Template
Position your template over the cut-out and start placing your folded strips according to your pattern. Secure as needed with tape or glue from the reverse side.
With these steps, creating a beautiful iris folded card becomes a slice of creativity! Enjoy crafting your unique design! ✂️✨
