Sl st in next loop and fasten off. Weave in ends.
Tips for Using Your Crochet Face Cleansing Pads
Cotton yarn is a great choice for reusable facial scrubbies because it’s absorbent and washable. Make several so you can use a fresh one each time you wash your face.
After use, rinse your scrubbie thoroughly and allow it to dry completely. Wash regularly according to the yarn manufacturer’s care instructions.
For a handmade gift, stack several flower face pads together and tie them with a ribbon. Add a bar of soap or a small bottle of cleanser for a simple, thoughtful gift.

I converted this to make a dish scrubby. I used a G hook, went up to 2 sc then sc nxt 4 with even rows in back loop only. I then did c2tg then sc & repeat til got to middle. Used tapestry needle to tie tog. Then went back like directions on even rows to do the sc then 3hdc & repeat through towards middle. I added a leaf. Tyvm!
For anyone as confused as I was trying to start this: it’s a two-part pattern. The first four rows are creating a flat base; the (3hdc, s) loop is worked into the unused front loops of said base to form the petals. Hope this makes things a little easier for people!
Thank you so much! I kept looking at mine wondering why it wasn’t coming out right before ai even got to the 3hdc’s.
Thank you!!! Makes much more sense now!! 😉
Thank you so much.
