Shower Scrubby...

I love to check out the Tangled Happy blog every day. In July of last year, I found this pattern for a flower pillow. Well, the second picture in the post is for a shower scrubby. You just crochet 4 rounds of the pillow pattern and stitch them together. I love this idea and I have been thinking about doing something like this with cotton yarn. I can just throw it in the laundry with the towels to get it clean, which makes me happy.

For the scrubby that I made, I crocheted 4 rounds of the pattern for the front and 5 rounds of double crochet plus a strip of 5 double crochets across - and long enough to fit the hand - to make a "handle" for the back. I used Sugar and Cream yarn in Cream, Robins Egg, Rose Petal and Ecru.

Can't wait to make some more...

    1. Hi Pat, the pattern is found here...

      http://thegardenbell.blogspot.com/2011/06/i-aint-no-bser-pattern-reveal.html

      The creator of the pattern crocheted 12 rows (rounds) for her pillow. For the scrubby, I crocheted the first four rows of the pattern. Then, for the back, I crochet 5 rows in the round of double crochet, crocheted my handle and then whip stitched them together.

      Hope this helps...

    2. I would like to know if the shower scrubby is to clean the shower or the skin.
      Thanks

    3. Well, I made it to clean the skin but I guess you could use it to clean the shower too :)

      For the scrubby, you just crochet the first four rounds and then create the back and handle. Good luck :)
