CROCHET WASHABLE BATH POUF

No more nasty plastic bath poufs!  Spoil your body with this 100% cotton pouf to use in the shower or bath and wash it as needed!  Simple to make and worth every penny because not only is it good for you, but it's environmentally friendly too!

This pattern was changed out of the desire to use only one skein of 2.5 oz. Lily Sugar'n Cream yarn per pouf.  The original pattern is from Daisy Cottage Designs.

The pouf can be washed and dried on the delicate cycle.

Supplies:

• 1 skein (2.5 oz) 4 ply 100% cotton Sugar'n Cream Yarn (uses just about the entire skein)
• Size 7 hook
• scissors
• yarn needle

Directions:

• Chain 5, slip stitch to connect at first chain to make loop.
• Chain 35 and slip stitch to connect back at loop (this will be the handle)
• Row 1: Single crochet into circle  20 times around and connect to top of first single crochet with slip stitch
• Row 2: Chain 2 and double crochet three stitches into each single crochet around (so 60 stitches total).  Connect to top of first double crochet.
• Row 3: Chain 2 and double crochet three stitches into each double crochet around (180 total).  Connect to top of first double crochet.
• Row 4: Chain 2 and double crochet three stitches into each double crochet around (540 total).  Connect to top of first double crochet and end off.

Finishing:
Use the yarn needle to weave all loose ends.

Presentation:
Make it look professional by adding a handmade label!

The label below is a pdf file that you can download for FREE - no strings attached!  Just click  on the example picture below or the button to download.  Designed for 8.5" x 11" paper.  I used  KRAFT Brown Bag Paper from Amazon (affiliate link).  Print the labels out (16 to a page) and cut between the dotted lines. Cut them in half and then fold the longer end around the handle and tape in place.
