Rose Spa Cloth

My New Rose Pattern from a Spa Cloth/Dish Cloth©

~Marilyn Wallace~

1..Knit a spa cloth/dish cloth.... I like to knit the Bee Stitch or the Rose Stitch http://www.knittingknonsense.com/beestitchcloth.html as there are little protusions that make it look like a cabbage rose.....This rose is a Spa Cloth so I used Bernat CottonTots...

2..Fold Cloth..... check out how to do this from last year’s rose ....NB You don’t need to baste...

3. Get 3 or as many as you prefer very small elastics for holding back your hair...Crochet all around the elastic with a chain st.... till it is very full... In every chain st. crochet 5 treble crochets until the elastic is full.... The treble stitches make it look like long rose petals....

4. Place scrunchies on the bottom part of the rose & adjust to make them look like rose petals.....Some I pointed downwards to look like a fully opened rose....You will have extra scrunchies around when needed..... Makes a nice double gift.....
