That being said, please do not copy my pattern, but share the link. Thanks.
As I said, I came up with this pattern while newly unemployed, and had nothing better to do, and a LOT of sugar and cream cotton yarn to stare at... It's very simple, and gauge is not important in the slightest. I did mine with size 8 needles, because it's what I had on hand.
Abbreviations: CO= Cast On, KFB= Knit into the Front and Back of stitch (increasing), K2Tog= Knit 2 together, SSK= Slip, Slip, Knit (alternatively, you can knit 2 together through the back loops, if it is easier for you)
CO 3 stitches.
KFB, K1, KFB
Knit next row
*K1, KFB, Knit to 2 stitches from end, KFB, K1
Knit next row*
Repeat between stars until the bath scrubby is as wide as you want it (this is the center.
*K1, SSK, Knit to last 3 stitches, K2Tog, K1
Knit next Row*
Repeat between stars until 3 stitches remain. Switch to Double pointed needles and work i-cord for 4-6 inches. Bind off, and bend back around to the top of the scrubby, and securely stitch in.
These are VERY fast to knit, and if you have the leftover cotton yarn that I do, you can have a large stash of these knit and ready to go with a bar of homemade soap as a last minute birthday or hostess gift.
