Neon Crochet Pot Scrubbers by Allison Murray I don’t like sponges being used in clean up situations… I’ve just heard way too much about germs that live up in them. But I do like scrubbies. We had a whole pile of the thing that were given as a gift. It was easy to see that they were little crocheted circles of maroon and hunter green, but I couldnt’ figure out what the material was for the life of me. So one day I’m in the craft store when I see one older lady speaking to another older lady who is putting spool after spool of tulle into her cart. “Are you making tutus?” Me being me, I have to go over and talk to this chick and get the skinny and I’m informed that you use the tulle like you would yarn and crochet rounds to make pot scrubbers. Why neons? For this project you will need: First you’ll need to ball up your tulle just like you would yarn. You don’t have to do this step, but while you wind it up you kind of condense it which makes it considerablly easier to crochet with. Chain 6 times. And there she is. What do you think?
