Ribbed Crochet Face Scrubbies

Introduction

Below will be two patterns for crocheted face scrubbies. The patterns are very similar, and it makes them perfect to be given away in sets together. I used a cotton yarn in this pattern, which you will always want to use for patterns meant to get wet. Each scrubbie took about 10 minutes to make, making these a perfect project when you just want to quickly and casually crochet.

Wrapping up

I make these in sets of four, and I choose two colors that go well together. When I do this I make one of each pattern in each color. Sets of four seem to be the perfect size for this pattern, and they make a fantastic gift!

I really hope you guys like this pattern and happy stitching!
