Materials
- Cotton yarn (1/4 skein for two Scrubbies)
- 3 Yards of medium tulle
- A scrap of cardboard or an empty paper towel roll (optional)
- Size 9 Knitting Needles
- Scissors or Cutter & ruler with cutting mat
Step 1: Prepare the Tulle:
NOTE: Tulle is unwieldy to work with. This method reduces the frustration that can result from handling a big chunk of tulle.
1. Fold the tulle in half lengthwise and then again lengthwise.
2. Carefully lay the "tulle sandwich" on a flat surface and weight it down.
3. Make an initial cut to one short side of the sandwich to even it out
4. With scissors or a rotary cutter and ruler, cut strips of the tulle approximately 1-1/4" wide.
NOTE: You need approximately 4 strips for one Scrubbie, but while you have the tulle tamed, you might want to go ahead and cut the whole thing at once.
