I've bought an end roll of carpet that I'm cutting into 75cm wide strips, like runners, to protect the GOOD carpet (which is beige and needs a lot of hoovering). How could I join the strips end on? And how could I stop the edges from fraying over time? For the latter I thought of applying a diluted PVA to the edges, say about 10mm into the weave to "lock" the fibres. This would dry transparent. It doesn't have to look especially good, as these "runners" are simply laid on top of the normal room carpet.
