On the ninth day of 12 Days of DIY, I crocheted for you, a pancake plush sponge! Some of my favorite crochet projects are those that serve a purpose. This is why I try to challenge myself to crochet something that you can use like this pancake plush sponge! This pattern requires Lily Sugar ‘N Cream cotton yarn, this yarn is absorbent so you can make kitchen and bathroom rags with it and simply pop it in the washing machine and dryer it to clean away all the dirt and grime! Originally, I wanted to make a dishcloth but I thought why not make a sponge, instead? So, I did!
Supplies:
– Yellow cotton yarn (I used Sugar ‘N Cream yarn)
– Beige cotton yarn
– Brown cotton yarn
– H/5.00 mm crochet hook
