Crochet Pattern: All Purpose Scrubbie

Here is a scrubbie that is soft enough to shower and wash your face with and still tough enough to clean dirty pots and pans. I wouldn’t recommend using it for all of these at one time, so be sure to make enough to go around. No matter if you are a beginner or an advanced crocheter here is a pattern you can enjoy. It doesn’t take much yarn and can be whipped up fairly quickly. For extra scrubbing power, add some nylon netting. crochet scrubbie

    Hi,

    I came across your site by accident looking for a good pattern for baby booties that I was going to get my Grandma to translate for me (all of the little codes might as well be another language for me).

    I found the listing of abbreviations so helpful. They must seem like insignificant details to regular crocheters because I could not find them anywhere else until I came to this site.

    What you do is absolutely amazing !! You are so clever and I am so jealous !! :)

    Now I can’t wait until I get home from work to start some patterns on my own :D

    Thank you for taking the time to share your creations !!

    – Jess

    I’ve never used a place marker. Can you explan the purpose as it relates to this pattern?

    Hey Cat!

    A place marker helps you keep track of where one round ends and the next begins. You can use a piece of scrap yarn and put it into the stitch. More info on using place markers in crochet can be found in a post a wrote a while back. It’s in example 2 at the bottom.

    I hope that helps!
