Free Pattern Friday - Reusable Crochet Cotton Facial Scrubbies

Do you like my new segment? Free Pattern Friday! I like the sound of that. Today I'll be sharing how I made my reusable cotton facial scrubbies! I use these for removing my makeup, washing my face, and applying astringent or essential oils to my face. They are 100% cotton, washable, and SO easy to make. You'll see.

• ·         Yarn needle
• ·         Scissors

What stitches you’ll need to know:

• ·         ch – chain
• ·         sl st – slip stitch
• ·         puff st – puff stitch (y/o, hook into the st, y/o, pull through and lift up – leave some slack, y/o, hook into the same st, y/o, pull through and lift up, y/o, hook into the same st, y/o, pull through and lift up, y/o, pull through all loops on the hook, secure with ch)

Instructions:

ch 3, sl st in first ch of the row to create a loop

*optional – pull yarn tail behind the hook and align with the loop so you can crochet over the top of it.

 Rnd 1) ch 1, 8 puff st in center loop (see how to do the puff stitch above in BOLD), sl st into the space between the 1^st and 2^nd puff stitches.

Rnd 2) ch 1, 2 puff st in same space, 2 puff st in next ch space and in between every puff stitch from the previous round (16 puff st), sl st into the space between the 1^st and 2^nd puff stitches of that round, finish off and tie or sew in the ends.

See? How easy was that?

You can make these in any color or size you want! Have fun with it. 

Have a great weekend!
