Pat's Crocheted Scrubbie

By Pat Linn, Saskatchewan, Canada

Supplies
One crochet hook (I used 5.50)
Nylon netting cut into 2 inch strips about 8 to12 strips of 72 inches ea. (Approx. 60 feet)
This netting can be purchased by the yard at any fabric or dept. store that carries crafts/fabric.
Notes:
Strips may be joined by creating a slipknot. Fold the end of a strip over 1" and cut a 1/2" slit across the fold. Repeat for the second strip. Lay strips one on top of the other running in opposite directions so that the cut ends overlap and the slits line up. Insert the uncut end of the bottom strip through the slits in both strips and pull through. Pull on both strips to tighten the knot, but don't pull too hard, as this will tear the nylon. With strips together, wind netting "yarn" into ball. (Roll or twist netting strip as to make a yarn)
