A crochet pattern: Heart Face Scrubbie Pads

This week, I'm being featured over at Violet's Buds and it's given me a bit of confidence and incentive to write and write early!

I don't write many patterns but this is my first go at sharing one and I'd love some feedback! This pattern is worked in rounds.

Abbreviations:
ch - chain
slst - slip stitch
sc - single crochet

  3. Great pattern! When I saw the scrubbies yesterday, I didn't realize that they were double sided. That definitely makes them a lot sturdier.
