Brighten kitchen chores with the Free Crochet Flower Dish Scrubby Pattern offering a cute, durable scrubby that cleans dishes efficiently and adds charm.
A splash of color and texture can turn a mundane sink chore into a surprisingly cheerful moment. The Free Crochet Flower Dish Scrubby Pattern shows you how to stitch a bright, flower‑shaped scrubby that’s as effective as it is fun. With just three rounds, you’ll make petals that spread out in a blooming disc, giving you a soft but sturdy tool to tackle greasy pans, plates, and kitchen surfaces.
Colorful Crochet Flower Dish Scrubby Pattern Brightens Up Kitchen
The pleasing floral form brings a handmade touch to everyday maintenance, making washing dishes feel a little more thoughtful and a lot more satisfying. To follow the pattern, you begin with a magic ring, work round one with double crochet, build your petals using half‑double and double crochet stitches, then finish by trimming and weaving in your ends neatly.
Special scrub yarn—like Scrub‑Ology—you get a durable, slightly coarse finish that scrubs well without tearing delicate items.
Its compact size makes it easy to grip and rinse, while the flower shape helps it maintain structure even after repeated use.
This scrubby also dries quickly, helping prevent odors and mildew between uses. Because each one works up fast, you can whip up several in different colors to match your kitchen mood or swap them out regularly for hygiene.

Special Features
-
Reversible Design: You create two identical flower pieces and join them together, resulting in a thick, durable, and clean-looking double-sided scrubber.
-
Layered Look: The design uses three distinct rounds of increasing size (center, petals, border) to create a three-dimensional daisy appearance.
-
Size: The finished scrubber has a diameter of approximately 12.5 cm.
Level of Difficulty
This project is Intermediate. It involves multiple rounds, color changes, and the use of slightly more advanced stitches like the Treble Crochet 3-Stitch Cluster (Two-Treble Crochet Together) to form the petals. Mastery of the Magic Ring and clean finishing are also key.
Tutor’s Suggestions
-
Increase the Size: If you want a larger scrubber (larger than 12.5 cm), you can start the center with 13 sets of HDC and Chain 1, instead of 12.
-
Scrubber vs. Coaster: If you intend to use the piece as a simple coaster, you only need to complete the first single layer instead of making two and joining them.
-
Weaving Tails: After cutting the yarn for a color change, you secure the tail by bringing it to the back and neatly hiding it within the stitches to maintain a clean finish on the front.
Uses
-
Dish Scrubber/Scrubby: Ideal for cleaning dishes due to its thickness and texture.
-
Coaster: Use a single layer with regular yarn as a decorative coaster.
Materials
-
Yarn: Four colors are needed: a center color (e.g., Yellow), a petal color (e.g., White), and two accent colors (e.g., Light and Dark Mint/Blue).
-
Hook Size: Use a 6.0 mm hook for scrubber yarn or a 5.0 mm hook for general yarn.
-
Tools: Scissors.
Step-by-Step Details
You are about to learn how to crochet a beautiful Daisy Flower Reversible Dish Scrubber. This project utilizes four different yarn colors to create a layered, vibrant flower design with a finished diameter of about 12.5 cm. The pattern results in a double-sided, flat scrubber that is comfortable to use.
Tip
When you are working the final joining border (Part 4), make sure to insert the hook through the corresponding stitch or space on both the front and back pieces for every single stitch (SC and 6 HDC shell). This ensures the two layers are securely and uniformly attached.
