Nipmuc Scrubbie

Welcome to today’s Creating Christmas post! The idea is not just to pin (though that’s always super nice) but to actually create!

I named this Scrubbie after a local Native American tribe. Today’s post is a super fast quickie gift, & I always put a couple of scrubbies into my mom’s & husband’s stockings every year!

Materials: scrap of cotton yarn, G crochet hook

Gauge: Doesn’t matter

Measurements: my finished scrubbie measures 3” across

Abbreviations (pattern uses US terms):
ch: chain
sp: space
sl st: slip stitch
sk: skip
rep: repeat
sc: single crochet
dc: double crochet

Pattern note: Scrubbie is worked in the round, & joined with a slip stitch after each round is finished.

Pattern:
Ch 4, join with a sl st to form a circle.
Round 1: Ch 3 (counts as 1st dc), 15 dc into circle, join with a sl st to 1st dc.
Round 2: Ch 1, sc into same dc as joining. * Ch 7, sk 3 dc, sc in next dc, rep from * 2 times more, ch 7, join with a sl st to first sc.
Round 3: Ch 1, * (sc, 7 dc, sc) in next ch 7 sp. Rep from * 3 times more, join with a sl st to 1st sc.

End off. Weave in ends & wash dishes (or make your other half do them!)
