This little scrubber can be used for dishes if made with acrylic yarn or in the bathtub if made with cotton. Pair it with Grandma's Washcloth and give as a set for a thoughtful homemade gift.
As with all of Silver Lake Crochet Co. patterns this is for beginners. To make the Little Nubbin's Scrubber you will need to know how to make a Puff Stitch.
This is a Silver Lake Crochet Co. original pattern.

Assembling your scrubber: Hold each side of the scrubbie together (a safety pin is helpful here) with "puffs" on the outside. Starting in the corner use a Sc stitch to sew both pieces together (use 3 Sc in the corners to avoid a rounded appearance and Sl to Beg Sc to finish). Fasten off. Weave in ends.
