Spring is almost here, in Florida that is. For the rest of the country and many parts of the world, Winter is still in full effect and will probably be that way for at least another month or so. I hope everyone is staying warm and cozy, and has lots of winter crochet items to bundle yourselves in. Nonetheless, winter or spring, everyone needs bath accessories right? Valentine’s day is right around the corner and now is the perfect time to crochet a quick and easy bath set for you or a loved one.
In this pattern, we will be using both Tunisian crochet and traditional crochet methods. If you have not heard of Tunisian crochet, please check out my previous post here: https://daisycrochetstudio.wordpress.com/2019/01/22/what-is-tunisian-crochet/
To make this complete Crochet Bath Set, it is broken up into 3 parts and all it takes is 1 skein of 100% cotton yarn. Crafter’s Secret Cotton yarn from Hobby Lobby offers a wide variety of solid colors and color combinations to choose from. My absolute favorite is the beautiful color combination of Valentine.
