I'm afraid the photo taken of the straight on front did not turn out, so this is the closest I have to a from photo.
I used Cotton yarn for this project, and used double strand to make it stiffer, thicker, and durable. To accomplish this without needing two balls of yarn, I took the inside end and the outsider end together, and it worked beautifully for me!
It is all single crochet except for the edging, a Reverse or Backwards Crochet Stitch, and the Romanian Cord (more like a rope when doubled).
Here are some more photos of the bag.
I made a button hole in the flap of the bag to feed through the cord, tying it to keep the flap from flipping open.
Shower Mitt
I used to have these as a child, and I love using them both in a bath or showering. (sorry about the poor lighting) They are so very easy to make, too!
Facial Scrubbies
As this is gifted to a 12 year old, skin care becomes more important. Especially in this household with a Mom Beautician. I thought to make a daily facial scrubby would be a good start. These are used one a day that can be washed and reused instead of constantly purchasing the cotton rounds. The ones you see here are two extra ones. One without a Reversible/Backward Edge Stitch, and one with it.
Shower Scrubby/Puff
The one you see here, is not the one I made for this gift. It would of course have been made with the same yarn. It seems I did not get a photo of it either. But I did make some others in different cotton yarn colours, so I took a photo of it, so that you could see it.
I will have another post for you in the future showcasing my scrubbies and mitts. I will tell you that these can be made up real quick! Several in a day. These would make not only great gift sets, but individually they would be wonderful stocking stuffers for Christmas.
Thank you for stopping by again to check out my crochet creations.
