Materials needed:

• 1 ball of Red Heart Scrubby (note: I used 2 colors for the Scrubby, but this is not necessary. Colors used for this project: “Grape” and “Jelly”)
• 5.5 mm crochet hook
• Scissors
• Tapestry needle

Sizing:

• 6 inches wide
• 8 inches tall (including hanging loop)

Abbreviations:

• Chain (ch)
• Double crochet (dc)
• Slip stitch (sl st)

Instructions on how to make the Crochet Hexagon Scrubbies:

Chain 4 and join into a ring with a slip stitch.

Round 1:

Chain 4 (counts as a dc), then work (a dc into center of ring, chain 1) 11 times. Join to close with a slip stitch.

Note: If you want to make round 2 in the same color, simply slip stitch until you reach a ch 1 space and keep going. If you want to switch colors…cut yarn and join the new yarn at one of the ch 1 spaces and tie securely.

Round 2:

Chain 4 and work a dc in the same space. Chain 1, then work two double crochet in the next (chain 1) space. Keep doing this all the way around, working 2 dc in each space, then a chain 1. Join to close with a slip stitch.

Round 3:

Chain 4, then work 2 dc in the same space, then chain 1. In the next space, work three dc, then chain 1. Keep doing this all the way around the circle…3 dc, then a chain 1 in each space. Join with a slip stitch to close.

Round 4:

(circle becomes hexagon in this round): Chain 4, and in the first space work 2 dc, chain 1, then 3 dc all in the same space. This creates the first hexagon corner. In the next space, to work the hexagon side, chain 1, then work 3 dc in next space. Keep going in this manner, working a corner of two “clusters” and a side of 1 cluster (each cluster being separated by a chain 1). Join with a slip stitch to close.

Note: just be sure there is a ch 1 in between each grouping of 3 dc clusters as you work each round. That is what gives it the pretty spaces in between each cluster and keeps it nice and flat.

Hanging Loop (optional):

Slip stitch over to the next corner space (ch 1 space) then chain 10. Work a slip stitch in the same space and fasten off.

Finishing:

Weave in any ends and you’re finished!

Happy crocheting lovelies!
