New Pattern:Facial Scrubbing Disc (for Makeover Monday)

Image
By

For Makeover Monday I made a gift basket for a friend. I whipped up a couple of cool natural beauty aids in the kitchen: Oatmeal bath, lavender linen spray, lavender bath powder, and an herbal massage oil. I then designed this quick little pattern for a facial scrubbing pad based on a washcloth pattern that I'm fond of. I simple combined single crochet stitch with the triple to create a textured surface... Here is what I did.

Use an F or G hook and worsted weight cotton yarn.

Round 1-Make a magic ring and then crotchet 6 into the ring.
Round 2-SC and TR into each stitch around for a total of 12 stitches (6 single and 6 triple).
Round 3-( SC into next stitch, SC twice into next) repeat all the way around for 18 SC.
Round 4- (SC into next, TR into next, SC and TR into the next) repeat all the way around for a total of 24 (12SC and 12 TR)
Round 5- (SC into next 3 stitches, SC two stitches into the next) repeat all the way around for a total of 30 SC.
Slip stitch into next two SC and then fasten off.
Weave in ends and you have yourself a cute facial scrubbie.

If you are interested in finding out the recipe for the oatmeal bath simply stop by my other blog by clicking on the button and check out Makeover Monday. I will be posting the other recipes in weeks to come.

Cheers,
Jenn

    I love the scrubby idea, thanks for sharing the pattern. What type of yarn did you use? Cotton?

    Oops forgot the hook size and yarn type... I fixed it. Use an f or g hook and worsted cotton yarn. Thanks Dawn!

    When you say "crochet 6 into the ring," is that 6 sc's?

    Yes, single crochet. Sorry that was unclear.

Spring Break Frisbee

By
I created this pattern while sitting next to the campfire during spring break. I made several of them... they didn't take anytime at all. I found that a 100% cotton yarn like Lily's sugar and cream or the Walmart Peaches and Cream yarn worked best. On some attempts I used a slightly higher quality cotton yarn and found that the finished product was not as stiff and therefor didn't fly as well...they still worked great, however, so by all means use what you have. I haven't tried making this pattern with any other type of yarn although I'm sure it would work great. These frisbees are great indoors or out. Size K crochet hook 2 balls of worsted weight yarn (100% cotton dish cloth quality works best) tapestry needle Round 1: Holding 2 strands together and using the K hook use the magic ring method to SC 6 into the ring. Round 2: 2 SC into each of the 6 stitches (12 st) Round 3: *SC into next SC, 2 SC into next SC* repeat around (18 st) Round 4: *SC into next 2 SC, 2 ...

Spring Wash Cloth

It's Springtime and as a result I've been experimenting with color. I've decided that I'm going to focus on learning new techniques by writing patterns for wash cloths. Not only do they make practical gifts... but they are easy, inexpensive and portable projects that make a great way to learn new things. Here is the first of many patterns that I plan to write and share here on my new craft blog.
