Is there a way to make a fluffy rag rug without a plastic/rubber grid?

I'm wanting to make a rug out of old towels and another out of old t-shirts. I'm not terribly opposed to braiding/weaving them, but I'd rather make a fluffy one. Trouble is, the only rug grid stuff I can find comes pre-cut in kits meant for kids, so it's small, expensive, and comes with a bunch of stuff I don't want or need. So is there a way to do it without the grid? I've been pondering and googling for a while, and I can't think of or find anything...

    you will possibly be able to desire to attempt getting very super mesh squares or circles from the close by craft shop - like those used for latch hooking. Then take 6-8 inch strips of regardless of fabric mixture you desire, and loop the strips throughout the time of the backside of the holes and tie each and every strip in a 0.5 knot. try this with all the holes and you will land up with something comparable.
