Does anyone make them and have directions on how to make them. I have bought one from a Mennonite store that seems to have used a large hook. That one is 3 3/4" across, it starts with a center ring that is closed, no hole, then DC for three rounds then gets smaller on the back. I have not seen one that has larger full rounds of DC that I really would like to make.

Would like to know what size hook might be used to achieve the same fuller look. I have looked online and do not see anything that looks like the one I bought. I tried making one with a J hook, from online instructions but mine came out with skinny DC and not as filled as the one I bought.
Also what size do you cut the strips, 1.5" or 2".

Any help is greatly appreciated

I saw some on Youtube that use a "magic loop" so no hole in the middle, using tulle cut 3" wide. Link here:

There are many others on Youtube as well, such as:

Prism99, thank you for the links, never thought to check Youtube. Now am finding some use tulle and others use netting. Which one works the best, want to give them to my GD's who now have their own homes.

Have you noticed Red Heart makes “scrubby” yarn now ? Two products: ‘cotton scrubby’ for dish rags and ‘scrubby’ for dish/pan scrubbers.

Thanks for the info. I plan to make several of these for me and my friends. Best little scrubbies ever!

Found these rolls of tulle at a reduced price online at Walmart, if anyone is interested:

My Mom used to make and sell them she used netting. Tulle is softer and would make nice bath scrubbies.

Yes, but shipping is more than double the cost of product! Not offered by Walmart, who has free shipping. This seems to be a third party.......

Thank you for the heads up on the products that are available now, will look next time I am in town.
Do you think the dish/pan material would be the netting or tulle.

I don’t crochet, so I knit mine. Cast on 24 stitches, use #8 or 9 needles (short if you have them) and knit every row until you have a scrubby. I use #10 or 11 needles for dish rag and cast on 42 stitches to make it oversized because I found cotton scrubby shrinks after washing.
