This is a quick and easy Tunisian crochet project that is great for adventurous beginners and above. The scrubbie is made with a simple rectangle and no sewing is required as we use slip stitching instead.

Pattern:

Materials:

You can use any yarn you like. The yarn I used was particularly good because it is stretchy, doesn’t lose it’s shape, and it dries easier than cotton.I used worsted weight (#4) nylon yarn for this pattern. I used about 25 yards of EACH of 3 colors in HobbyLobby’s Yarn Bee “Scrub-Ology Scrub It Yarn” in Blue Thistle, Aqua and White.

Ultimately any “scrubbie style” yarn will work.
