Your face scrubbies turned out so cute, what a fantastic idea! I wanted to drop a quick message to let you know that today I’ve featured your post (with proper credit) on Crafts on Display, a thriving community of fellow crafting enthusiasts. I hope you enjoy it, and keep up the fab work!

Thanks for such a comprehensive tutorial! This is a perfect use for my little bits of leftover sock yarn! Mine have ended up being about the size of one of those cotton rounds, but that's perfect for applying toner.

[@mrsmamarex]

i love this pattern so much! however, i don’t get along very well with the magic ring so if anyone else is like me in that sense a chain 5, slip stitch in the first chain to connect and then using that as the ring was the perfect size for me! Thank you so much - these will make an amazing gift for Christmas!

[@SweetSofties]

Great tip! I'm glad you mentioned that because Magic Rings aren't the only way to start this project!

[@kysweetheart1964]

Kelzy, I never even heard of a magic ring, I learned 45 years ago, tried to make a few items, granny sq, fail, chevron fail. thought I would try my hand at it again. when I learned, it was as you said with your chain, I sat across from someone left handed, so I had been picking up my yarn wrong, so I found out. I was getting anxious over "magic ring" sounds like if that don't work for me, I can do old school. thanks

[@mrsmamarex]

Dorothy B Magic rings have always been so difficult for me! i much prefer a chain! i’m only 18 and just started crocheting so i’m so glad this helped! thank you so much

[@nicolefletcher1866]

Hello! Love the way these look! I was wondering if you have a video on how to weave in the excess yarn or if you could explain how to weave in the yarn? TIA!

[@SweetSofties]

Thanks so much! I'll keep this in mind for future videos -- I think it'd be helpful to upload something to show weaving in the ends. For now, I would say that what you can do is use a yarn needle to sew it into the stitches of the face scrubbie to hide the yarn end. Make sure the end isn't too short hwen you fasten off so that it can be securely fasetned inside of the scrubbie. Hope this helps!

[@UncleDutchFarms]

Perfect post, thank you! Just so you know, I tried to go to your website and it kept jumping around as I scrolled, I even reloaded it and it was doing the same thing, so just a heads up it might be a malfunctioning plugin. I think you had this video at the top of the page? Might be it, when I scrolled down it jumped past the video and if I scrolled down just a tiny bit more it would just jump to the bottom of the page. Anyway though - the video was enough! I love the puff scrubbies the best, and I haven't crocheted in ages, and your tutorial was easy to follow. Thank you!

[@SweetSofties]

Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear that! I'm confused as I tried it on both my personal computer and a public one but didn't have the problem. Is there some sort of issue with yoru browser perhaps?

Does it matter what color you use? Like of I use a darker color would it affect the person scrubbing their face?

[@SweetSofties]

It shouldn't matter if the yarn quality is good / the brand is reputable! The color shouldn't rub off unless the dying was not done well.

[@debbiejeannoyola]

Please help! Why is the first round of making the puffs so difficult? I’m in tears trying to get the first round going, then the rest of the rounds go pretty smoothly. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

[@SweetSofties]

Sorry to hear that! Why are they difficult? Is the tension too tight? If so, perhaps go up a hook size!

[@teresarikkonen2990]

Thanks for the tutorial! Im wondering, why my puff looks pretty on the front side but super ugly on the back side? I finished one pad and it looked really nice but then I flipped it over and.. 😳 I dont understand what im doing wrong with the puffs 🙈

[@SweetSofties]

Oh no! I'm not sure what's going on. :( I wonder if it might be tension, perhaps? Do you pull the yarn evenly as you work?

[@kaytorrence8870]

I love this video ( just bought your pattern so I can do the set 🤗) if I may ask what should be the stitch count total at the end of your rounds Thank you ( ps I agree with the other comment your voice is so soothing 🤗)

[@SweetSofties]

Aww, thanks for the sweet words and for supporting my small business! :) That means a lot!! For the stitch count total, you'll find it in (parenthesis), so for example, after R1, the stitch count total is "(6 puffs, 6 chains)" and after R2, the stitch count total is "(12 puffs, 12 chains)". Hope this helps!

[@pachedaforno8935]

Hermoso!!

[@SweetSofties]

Mil gracias!

[@KentuckyWoman2]

Well, we finally finished two of these and one thing I have to say is that I have a feeling this can't be a 6mm hook. Both of ours turned out much, much looser and not close together at all. We're going to try this with a 5mm and see if there's a difference. But again, I would not say this is very beginner-friendly. That pouf stitch isn't easy to master in terms of getting the hook through all those loops. Otherwise, the basic pattern is fairly easy.

[@SweetSofties]

Hi, sorry to hear about the hook size not working out! Yes, going down a hook size would definitely help with this issue. It sounds like this is a tension difference, so you may be crocheting on the loose side in general. Anyhow, the puff stitch takes a bit to get right; keep at it and you'll find it to be more natural and easier to make with each try! :)

[@shaunaholley]

Hi! Firstly, thank you for a great tutorial! Nice speed so was easy to follow. I was using much thinner yarn so I decided to make another round of puff stitch (after the 24) but it then curled and now looks like a jelly fish... I made 48 assuming I should just double each time. What did I do wrong? Is there a calculation I need to do to increase rounds? Thanks! Shaun

[@SweetSofties]

Thank you for the nice comment! If you are using much thinner yarn, I would recommend holding it doubled (double-stranded). Combining it will yield a thicker yarn that can more closely match the medium weight yarn that I'm using. Alternatively, if you don't wish to hold the yarn doubled, I recommend using a smaller crochet hook so that your work doesn't curl. Hope this helps!!

Could we use acrylic yarn as well? Love the tutorial btw, so easy to follow!

[@SweetSofties]

Thanks so much for the nice comment! If you use acrylic yarn, it won't be as effective as an absorbent face scrubby, but I think acrylic yarn can work well if you're using this pattern to make a decorative cup coaster!

[@cheyennerossetti2345]

When using yarn for face clothes dishclothes and towels you need to use 100% cotton for it to be antimicrobial. Acrylic will mold and will have a sponge like effect.

[@laurao810]

Thank you so much for this video! Your tutorial is so easy to follow. I've now subscribed to your channel. I do have a question though. My face scrubby doesn't sit flat and has a wave in it. I've done 2 with 2 different cottons and they both do. What am I doing wrong or how can I correct it to make them lay flat?

[@SweetSofties]

Thanks for the kind comment, I'm happy to have you here!! Regarding the issue with the scrubby not sitting flat, it sounds like it could be a tension issue (if tension is too tight, it will scrunch up). I would recommend using a larger hook to use with the yarn, that will it will loosen your tension and allow the stitches to be less tight. Hope this helps!

[@laurao810]

@@SweetSofties thank you so much for the reply, I did try that and still had a wave but as it sat it relaxed a bit. I think I just need to practice my tension. Thank you again for the easy to follow tutorial.

[@SweetSofties]

I see! I'm glad it relaxed a bit after sitting. Sometimes you can also pull on it to loosen some of the stitches in the tighter areas. If you try blocking your project, that can help too!

[@FairMaidenDesigns]

I really can't afford to go out and buy all new cotton yarn. Is the Caron Super Soft ok for making these face scrubbies along with the washcloth and bath poofy?

[@SweetSofties]

Hi, I would recommend cotton yarn for facial scrubbies and the other spa items, because it holds up a lot better than the 100% acrylic yarn that Caron Simply Soft is. The concern is that the acrylic yarn may wear out faster and stretch out of shape easier, whereas cotton won't really lose its shape or get stretched. Sorry about the inconvenience, but I hope you can get your hands on some cotton yarn! Sometimes I find good deals at my local thrift store!

[@teamvasilia]

hi!!! i love your video! do u mind to tell me how and with what soap is preferable to wash scrubbies?

[@SweetSofties]

Thank you! For washing face scrubbies, I just stick them into a lingerie bag and throw it into the washer with regular laundry detergent. Hope this helps!

[@michaelawheaton1638]

Love the pattern! I made one and my stitches aren't as close together as yours, and it doesn't quite lie flat. Should I just try a smaller hook?

[@SweetSofties]

Thank you! If you find that your stitches aren't as close, yes, I'd try going down a hook size or two. That can help you crochet more tightly, which can resolve the issue with not laying flat too. Hope this helps!!

[@hannahpham3121]

Could this be like a washable face towel to pay dry? Cotton yarn?

[@SweetSofties]

You can use it like a towel to pat dry! Cotton yarn would be best. These scrubbies are small for a towel, but I think a good size for faces.

These make great gifts! They're used to wash faces or to remove makeup. I use it to wash my face like a small washcloth. After getting my face wet, I'd use the face scrubby to scrub my face to wash off any lotion and such. I hope this explanation helps! If not, let me know and I can make a short demo video in the future if you'd like to see a scrubby in action.

Goes WAY too fast! I'm still trying to figure out how she did her magic circle - everyone has a different method it seems and she doesn't do a very good job of explaining it at all. I really want to make these because I like the look, but I'm just lost at trying to figure out how she even began. It's a shame she can't slow down a bit.

[@SweetSofties]

Hi! After finishing, you will weave in the ends. You can either do that by using a small crochet hook to pull the ends through the project (hiding it within stitches) or by using a yarn needle to do the same. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions! :)

[@DaphVany]

I am using the same yarn and the same size of hook and I can't make it work. When I start, my yarn gets so tight that I can't pull the hook through the loop ;-;

[@taratolentino6110]

hello is it okay to use milk cotton yarn?

[@SweetSofties]

That sounds really interesting! I haven't heard of milk cotton yarn before. If it is cotton and natural and doesn't stretch too much, I think they would be quite suitable as face scrubby's.

[@augustlin289]

The yarn that you used recommended a 5 mm hook, but you used a 6 mm hook; how was that possible? Just curious !

[@SweetSofties]

Hi! You can use a different hook size from the "recommended" hook that is on the yarn labels. It will produce a different look. For example, with larger hooks, the stitches will be looser and not as densely put together. With smaller hooks, the stitches will be tight. So with projects such as amigurumi, where you wouldn't want stuffing to show, you will need smaller hooks than called for on the yarn label to crochet tight stitches. For this spa set, I recommend using a slightly larger hook so that these items aren't too tight/rigid and to keep them from curling up. I hope this makes sense, but please feel free to ask questions if you have any! P.S. I love your username! Are you a vegetarian/vegan?

[@augustlin289]

SweetSofties ah~ thank you so much for the explanation. I just started to crochet and was very confused !!! & yes I am vegan and i make vegan food related video such as recipes and what I eat in a day!!!!

So I had one of my more experienced crochet friends do this pattern and we both came to this conclusion: this is not a beginner-friendly pattern. Also, if you're a crocheter who holds their hook the other way, i.e. like a knife rather than like a pencil, THAT makes a big difference. We finally figured out how to do this, but while my friend's final result looks better than mine, neither of ours looked like this woman's. We attributed that to the way she holds her hook. Very pretty pattern but I don't think I'll be trying it again.

Sorry to hear that! I've had numerous crocheters share their finished face scrubbies with me on Instagram and enjoyed how easy it was to make, but it is possible that the hand grip comes into play too. My apologies it didn't work out for you! :(

What it your website address?

Hi! It is: www.sweetsofties.com/

I literally just bought this pattern for like 4 bucks on ravlery 😡 ugh

[@SweetSofties]

I'm very sorry you feel upset about it. Please know that the pattern on Ravelry includes all four items from my Tea Rose Spa set, and it's meant to be helpful as a written pattern (not everyone likes following video tutorials) that has all the instructions laid out in an easy-to-read way. Your purchase also supports me greatly as a small-time designer who can offset some of the costs of my materials fees and allows me to create more free patterns and tutorials to share.

Muchisimas gracias!

I’m a beginner and found your way to fast and hard to follow, maybe better for more advanced person

[@SweetSofties]

I'm sorry to hear that! If you'd like to attempt it with a slower speed, you can select a reduced speed in the settings menu. Anyhow, I wish you best in your crochet journey!

[@elizabethlewis636]

Great pattern, but could ease up on the sugary sweet voice?

[@mrspinballpotter2299]

I really think you needed to redo the voice over. You are making it a little confusing for a notice.

[@SweetSofties]

I'm sorry about that! May I ask what you would recommend me changing about the voice over? Was the volume making it confusing, the way I explained things, or something else?

[@mrspinballpotter2299]

SweetSofties I found it a little confusing as you said the wrong thing a couple of times and then would say I’m sorry. For a novice I like these video to be very clear so I can do my best to follow them. Thank. The scrubbier are fab. I made 6.

Swalha Hussein if I’m trying to follow it then it would be helpful for it to be clear correct instructions. I said the scrubbier are fab. Are you a novice trying to follow the video?

[@vanesszaadam2548]

Way toooo fast!!!

[@rxddie8061]

No its not

[@KittenBowl1]

How is this fast?? Have you seen tutorials from others? This is a nice pace even for a beginner. If this is too fast this isn’t a project for you. Pick a complete beginner project.

[@rxddie8061]

@@KittenBowl1 yes!

[@gracej6021]

You can adjust the speed of the video. That's what i did at first

[@suebabe100]

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. When I do a puff I always get 7 stitches instead of 6. Can you help? TY

[@SweetSofties]

I'm not really sure; did you mean 7 loops? My suggestion is to slow down the video (you can change the settings to 0.5 speed), hopefully that will help!

[@suebabe100]

@@SweetSoftiesThanks so much for your reply! I was starting it wrong, that's why! Now I have 6 loops as it should be 🥰
