Bath Loofah - FREE Crochet Pattern

I have a "thing" with that plastic loofah in my shower. I LOVE how it exfoliates, but hate how it felt so germ infested. And if you try and wash it, it just falls to shreds. And having to buy a new one each time I feel as though it was grody (which pretty much within the first week) or when it got torn to shreds, was not being to kind to my wallet.

So I started crocheting my own. Some of you might remember that I used to sell them too on Etsy. But once I realized the amount of time it took to crochet one, and my inability to provide myself an hourly wage with them, I stopped making them. For business at least. I still make them for myself. And I still get requests about them. So I'm going to tell you all my pattern.

Really? Free? Yes, totally. Go ahead, make what you sell. I hope you sell oodles!

~1 ball 100% cotton (washer and dryer safe)

~Size G hook...or any size you prefer. The smaller the hook, the smaller the loofah. The smaller the hook, the more sturdy the loofah also is.
