Scrubbies With Soap Bag
"This simple, cute crochet scrubby pattern makes the perfect useful gift. It also includes a pattern for a mesh drawstring bag to store the scrubbies or use as a soap saver. This scrubby crochet pattern is a great project for your practically-minded loved ones who appreciate useful and sustainable gifts. This set of crochet cotton face scrubbies comes with its own little mesh bag, which you can use to hold the scrubbies or as a soap saver bag. These little scrubbies would be the perfect addition to a spa gift package. You can even support a small business by buying a nice handmade soap bar and putting the whole thing together as a thoughtful gift. Make them in neutral white or cream, calming pastel tones, or cheery bright colors to suit your recipient’s taste. You may even like this pattern so much that you’ll make a set for your personal use. The facial scrubbies themselves are created using linked double crochet stitches, which are actually simple stitches that are a variation on the classic double crochet. This special stitch eliminates gaps to make a thick crochet scrubbie that will hold up well to everyday use. They’re sturdy enough to be used as kitchen scrubbies as well."
