Happy Easter!
This post is brought to you by my amazing Mom, She is super talented at quilting and crocheting and she told me I could share this crochet pattern for a Reusable Swiffer Sock with you guys!
If you or someone you know own a swiffer, you might want to consider making this! Instead of purchasing a package of disposable swiffer cloths, once you make your swiffer a sock, you can just wash it off and use it again!
You can even make it in cute colors!
---Here's the pattern---
Materials:
- Small amount of worsted-weight (CYCA size 4) acrylic yarn in two colors
- Size H (5mm) hook
- Yarn needle
Abbreviations:
ch: chain
sc: single crochet
dc: double crochet
sl st: slip stitch
st: stitch
FL: front loop
