Beginner Face Scrubbie Pattern Instructions

Start off by tying a slip knot, then Ch 3

Join to the first stitch with a slip stitch to form a circle.

Optional alternative: You could also try the Magic Circle for a tight & closed center.

Round 1: 

Ch 2 (counts as first dc in this and all rounds), then into that circle you just created, work 9 dc stitches (10).

If you started with a Magic Circle, pull it closed. Join to the top of the first stitch with a sl st (10).

Round 2: 

Ch 2. Dc into same st as ch 2.

2 dc into each stitch around.

Join with a sl st to the top of first stitch of this round (20).

Round 3:

ch 1. Sc into the same st, 2 sc into each stitch around (40). 

Join with a sl st to the top of first stitch of this round.

Weave in your ends with your darning needle. Make sure you weave them in properly because this scrubbie will probably be getting a lot of use!

And remember to weave in your beginning tail too!

Cut off excess.

And voila! You're done! Now you can make a few more.

And if you're giving them as gifts, you can wrap them in these scrubbie tags.

Note: If you'd like a larger face scrubbie, you may add a 3rd round of dc before your last round. Follow this chart for the increases in dc. For more information, please have a look at this post on How To Crochet A Flat Circle.
