Dishcloth Scrubbie

This is my version of a round dish cloth scrubbie.   If you choose to share this pattern with a crafting group or mailing list, please include a link to my website for credit.  Thanks.

Dish cloth scrubbies are great for cleaning those hard to clean dishes and pots.  My finished version reminds me a little bit of a flower.

You can make the scrubbies yourself but I buy mine at the dollar stores - usually in packets of 6 for $1. I find working with the nylon required to make the scrubbies is very hard on my hands.

With a 4 mm crochet hook some cotton yarn, crochet 30 stitches around the center of the scrubbie.

Rnd 1 - Single crochet into each stitch for the second row. Join the first to last with a slip stitch and chain 2.

Rnd 2 - * sc in next 3 stitches, 2 sc in the next sc * repeat * to * to end, slip stitch to join first to last

ch 3,

Rnd 3 - dc in next stitch, 2 dc in next stitch, * dc in next 2 sc, 2 dc in next sc * repeat to end, if any stitches remain dc in each one, sl st join last to first

Repeat previous row 4 times (or more if you want a bigger cloth)

The edging is a shell stitch, sl st in next dc * skip 2 dc, 5 dc in next dc, skip 2 dc, sl st in next dc * repeat * to * to end.

I do not claim this pattern to be absolutely perfect, but those that crochet on a regular basis will be able to figure it out and adjust where necessary. I'm better at doing crochet than writing down a pattern.
