If you want to share your work or if you need help with the CAL, check out the CAL Central Facebook group! My pattern contribution is a quick and easy scrubbie that has great texture. I used a simple pique stitch and single crochet combo to create my scrubbie. It is made with a gorgeous cotton yarn and can be used for dishes or even beauty applications.  Scroll down to check out the FREE crochet pattern for my Pique Scrubbie. I hope you enjoy it!
