This one can be made in less than 2 hours!
So, I tried a few different patterns for making a shower puff. I didn't really like the finished product that I got, one was too big, one felt hollow in the middle, and another just felt so dense.
What's a girl to do?
Make a pattern, of course. The pattern can be finished in about 2 hours, with intermediate skills.
This is a great gift that is very quick to produce, just incase you need a last minute something....
Without further ado, here it is:
Materials:
-1 skein Lily Sugar N Cream 100% cotton yarn
-size G crochet hook
ch= chain
sl st= slip stitch
sc= single crochet
Ch 35, sl st to first ch. This is the handle.
Ch 6, sl st into where you just joined the loop for the handle.
Round 1- Ch 4, sc into smaller loop. *Ch 3, sc in smaller loop*, repeat from * to * 18 more times, making 20 loops total.
Round 2- Ch 5, sc into first loop of Round 1. *Ch 4, sc in same loop. Ch 4, sc in same loop (total of two times). Ch 4, sc in next loop.* Repeat from * to * all the way around. You should now have 60 loops.
Round 3- Ch 6, sc into first loop of Round 2. *Ch 5, sc in same loop. Ch 5, sc in same loop. Ch 5, sc in same loop (three times total). Ch 5, sc in next loop.* Repeat from * to * all the way around. You should have 240 loops now. I know it sounds like a lot, and if you don't have that many, know one will know but you ( ha ha ha, in my best evil chuckle).
Tie off, weave in ends, and call it a day, you're done!
I was able to make 2 puffs out of one skein of yarn, I only had about 3 to 4 yard left though, so be careful.
Happy Hooking!

Hi :) I just love this. I do have a question for you though. I m looking into creating a bath item shop... most likely on line but probably not on etsy... looking into making bath bombs, bath salts... among other things. I've been looking for a good shower poof pattern and I am wondering if I may use your pattern and then sell the finished product... not the pattern. If you would rather me not, that is perfectly okay. Thanks and your work is really great!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Keri for asking!
ReplyDeleteConsidering it's a basic pattern I don't mind if you use this pattern to make and sell items ONLY if you reference the pattern and it's source in your labeling of your products.
Again, thanks for asking first.
Most welcome and thank you so much :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not quite there for getting my shop set up... I'm hoping to get it all together by fall but as soon as i do, i'll post a link to it and if I make any poofs from your wonderful pattern, i will for sure give you credit as the designer.
I'm so new to crocheting but I hope that one day i can come up with my own designs. But until then, thank you again for allowing me to use yours :)
No problem, that's great that you picked up crochet! It's a wonderful hobby, and very productive. If you haven't ventured onto Ravelry yet I highly recommend it, tons of patterns!
