Happiness is Homemade party

Goodbye spring, hello summer!!!  Have you been enjoying it? I sure am!  I even started making some new dishes to bring to family cookouts and get togethers.  This is my favorite time of year.  Sinea here, from Ducks ‘n a Row, and I am your host for the month of July.  Welcome to the Happiness is Homemade Link Party 

Speaking of making new recipes, this party is sure to have a lot of great ones.  You have to check them out! For those who may be new to our party, this is what it is about. Each week bloggers come by and share their latest and  best recipes, crafts, home décor projects, DIY, kids activities and more!  It is all here for you to enjoy.

How To Crochet a Dish Scrubby

Leave a Comment

Guest post by Vicky Morgan
The prizes for bingo the other night at church were dish scrubbies and crocheted dish cloths. I won but gave mine to the next winner and just asked for the pattern. I’ve always wanted to make one of these and now I’m on a roll!

Do you love to crochet?  Well, the wonderful friend who gave me the pattern encouraged me to pass it on. So here it is with a warning: making these can be addictive.  You will be making one for yourself, your kids, and all of your friends.  They will be thrilled!  Just letting you know. ♥
Love to crochet? Make dish scrubbies! They make good gifts 🙂 #DIY #crochet #cleaning Share on X

Instructions:

Size I Crochet Hook

Use Nylon Net (comes by the yard at places like Joanne’s or you can buy it here on Amazon)

cut into 2-3 inch wide strips- (I like to tie the strips together as I cut them and roll into a ball).

chain 4 and slip to form a circle

Working in rounds

Row 1- 4 sc in circle (do not turn)

Row 2- 2 sc in each stitch- 8 sts.

Row 3- 2 sc in each stitch – 16 sts.

Row 4- 2 sc in each stitch – 32 sts.

Row 5 & 6 – 1 sc in each stitch -32 sts,

Row 8- 1 sc in every other stitch -16 st.

Row 9- 1 sc in every other stitch – 8 sts.

Row 10-1 sc in every other stitch -4 sts.

Slip stitches together to close off the circle.

 

Thanks so much, Vicky, for the fun post! I love to crochet and I can see how this really could become addictive! Scrubbies everywhere!  They would make cute bridal shower and/or housewarming gifts.
