Project Issue 3: Scrubbies

There were a few ladies in my ward I wanted to give a birthday gift to so I grabbed the netting and got to work. I completed these with some help from my mother-in-law.

These are just a couple of them. 

 

I got the pattern from my mother in law. 

Nylon Scrubber Instructions:

 

Material needed:

*2 yards Nylon netting (makes 4 scrubber pads) The rougher the netting the better—big                                                  holes not the tiny holes that kind makes great shower ones for the body.

 

*Size “K” crochet hook

 

 

Refold netting so it can be cut lengthwise into 3 inch wide by 6 foot long strips.   A rotary cuter & cutting board can be used but may be as easy to lay out netting, measure & mark the 3” strips with a fine point felt tip marker & straight edge, then use scissors to cut the strips.

 

Knot tie 6 strips together.

 

1.     Chain 5 & connect with 2 single crochet in the beginning chain to make a circle.

 

2.    Single crochet twice (2 times) in each stitch for 2 (6-foot) lengths of netting in the back stitch only.

 

3.    Single crochet in each stitch until the last length of netting—until the 5^th knot.

 

4.    Decrease on the 6^th length by:  single crochet one in every other stitch until you have about 12” of netting left. 

 

5.    Turn scrubber inside out (bring beginning tail up through hole) & continue crocheting in every other stitch until hole is closed up by pulling ends through the loop.  Tie & secure knot with beginning tail & ending tail & stuff inside center of scrub pad.

 

6.  Pull the finished pad into shape.
