Face Scrubbie with Handle Crochet Pattern
We all know we need to wash our faces a couple of times a day, and having a homemade, reusable face scrubbie just makes it a little more fun. This Face Scrubbie with Handle is no different.
These crocheted cotton rounds have a little handle on the back so you can slide your fingers through and hold onto it easily.
Do you love these easy done in a day patterns? I have an entire collection of them in my 90 Done In A Day Patterns Bundle! You have to check out all the patterns in there! You won't want to miss the chance to snag this bundle. Check out all the patterns that are included here.

You can make a bunch of these in no time for you and your family to use, or make them as a teacher appreciation gift with some nice soap or body wash.
And because they don’t use a lot of yarn, you can easily use up all your little odd balls making these!
This is a great project if you're honing your crochet skills. If you're new to crochet and looking for some great foundational videos to help you develop your skills quickly and easily, you have to check out my Crochet Fundamentals course.

Hi, Cathy! Thank you for pointing that out. We’ve actually just updated our pattern which includes that correction. Please refresh the page to see the latest version.
To Clarify: The radius is the distance from the center to the edge of the scrubby.
There is an error in this pattern. On the handle, when you
ch 5, then sc in the 2nd ch from the hook, sc in the rest of the chs, you only have 4 sts, not 5. If you want 5 sts across, you need to ch 6.
Hi thanks for sharing.
1 1/2 radius ? I have that after the first round…
I just do one it is so easy I think Im going to do more. Thanks
