17 Dish Scrubbies To Make
Scrubbies are nice to use and they’re simple to make too! These are handy in the kitchen for washing dishes and gentle enough to use on appliances and counter tops. Also tuck a few into your cleaning bucket since they wipe away fingerprints and scuffs found around the house (fine to use on painted walls). I love making these (they’re so quick & easy!) and am always looking for new patterns to try. Consider adding this to your handmade gift list for project ideas, lots of people love receiving them!

Loom/Spool Knit: These are really scratchy but because the crino is 100% nylon it won’t scratch Teflon or even a ceran top stove. Washer & dryer friendly.

I’ve only been crocheting about a year and I’m “hooked”. As soon as I finish up this afghan I am going to have to try one of these scrubbies. Thanks for sharing. Take Care 🙂
Vicki is so right – I’ve been crocheting for a while now and can’t put down my hook!
Thanks for the scrubby patterns.
I’ve been making something similar to the Aloo Scrubbie but I only go as far as the 3rd round. I make 2 identical ones then crochet them together around the edges then, with yarn still attached, I chain 12 and make a loop and attach it to the edge so I can hang it up to dry on a nail or hook by the kitchen sink. It eliminates having to use a needle for anything. (I also loosely tie them together on the inside – strings hanging from start-off – before I crochet the 2 together.)
The netting scrubbies are the reason I taught myself to crochet, I love them!!
Thanks for sharing the Tulle scrubbies. I am a beginner at chrocheting, what does bunched up mean? I really would love to make these as some one
made them for me a a gift.
I just love doing these. all thepatterns are great. I wanted to do one hundred by Christmas to give away, I almost made the 100. thanks, passing it on…
