Exfoliating Spa Set

"Scrubby yarn isn’t just for dishcloths! This Exfoliating Spa Set is just the thing for last-minute crochet gifts for special occasions like crochet Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day and Birthdays. Make the matching set, throw in a bar of fancy soap and you’re set! Scrubby yarn makes a lovely textured surface that’s perfect for exfoliating in the bath or shower. The red details made in cotton yarn accent the scrubby yarn beautifully and make this Exfoliating Spa Set feel extra special. The bath mitt features a red heart to show your love. The back scrubber features built in handles and red stripe accents on either end. This is a tunisian crochet pattern. The stitches used are the tunisian full stitch, tunisian simple stitch, and extended tunisian simple stitch. I know that a crochet project that includes scrubby yarn and tunisian crochet stitches seems a little intimidating, but trust me – if you have done a couple of tunisian crochet patterns before, then you should have no trouble with this one!
