This handy little bag has two purposes: 1- gift bag and 2- SCRUBBER. When the receiver of this little bag first gets it they’re gonna think that it’s JUST a cute little bag, THEN, when you (or a cute little gift tag) instructs them to turn the bag inside out they will have a pleasant surprise……. A scrubber.

By using tulle for the scrubber and cotton yarn for the bag this little tool is just great for cleaning off in the bath or shower. It’s gentle yet cleans well. I made one for my Fiancee and now that’s all he uses.

Materials needed:
Main body of bag- Less than 1 ounce WW Cotton yarn
Approx 5 yards of scrubby material
Size “H” Hook and “I” Hook
Tapestry Needle
Stitch Markers

Note: I gave these as Christmas gifts last year (2011) and included a small (3.2 OZ) bag of Lavender Epsom Salt. You can purchase a 4 Lb bag of Epsom salt from Wal-mart for around $4.50 and get quite a few little bags of Epsom Salt out of it. I got about 18 Bags out of one 4 Lb bag. That’s a lot of small, quick and thoughtful gifts.
