Crochet Face Scrubbie: Cleansing Pads Pattern

January 6, 2017

Crochet face scrubbies are a great beginner crochet project. Not only are these reusable cleaning pads cost-efficient, but they’re eco-friendly, too. These little face scrubbies work up fast and are a great evening crochet project to make while watching TV. With a small skein of cotton and just an hour you can have a face scrubby for everyday of the week.

How to Make a Crochet Face Scrubbie

Hey Gnomies,

I have a great beginner crochet project for you today. Crochet face scrubbies! These are great to use to wash your face instead of cotton balls, pads or even those disposable cleansing wipes. I used Lily Sugar n’ Cream cotton yarn in Stawberry Ombre  and a 5mm hook.

When it comes to my skin care regime I either do a super lengthy 10 step routine that involves face masks, peels and oil cleansing or I just do a quick swish of some micellar water and call it good.

These crochet face scrubbies don’t use very much yarn so you can make them with scraps left over from bigger projects. Just make sure you use 100% cotton yarn.

Supplies Needed to Make Crochet Cleansing Pads

  • Cotton yarn- I like this one.
  • 5 mm crochet hook
  • Scissors

Crochet Scrubbies Pattern

  1. Start by chaining 2
  2. Half double crochet 10 into the first chain
  3. Slip stitch, chain one, and 2 half double crochet into each of the stitches.
  4. Once you work your way around connect to the first stitch with a slip stitch, chain one and do two half double crochet into each of the stitches. Connect with a slip stitch, chain one and single crochet into each of the stitches to finish off the edge.
  5. Tie off and weave in the ends.

How to Care for your Crochet Cleansing Pads:

Toss them in your laundry with your regular towels and wash cloths. You can wash and dry them as you would with any cotton fabric. You may want to put them into a mesh laundry bag so that you don’t misplace any in your wash.

You will probably want to use a fresh one everyday so make at least 5-7 so that you always have a clean one on hand when you wash your face.
