This is a quick and easy pattern and is amazing for use with your favorite makeup remover or with your favorite facial cleanser to gently exfoliate and clean skin.
We recommend using cotton yarn as it is easy to wash and dry and can be used repeatedly. These can be tossed in with your regular clothes and washed and dried. Be aware dyed cotton yarn can bleed so avoid washing colored yarn with whites. These should last many years if allowed to dry in between use! (to avoid bacterial growth and smelling bad)
