Get Naked Crochet Bath Mat
Ah! It’s Love Day! And if you’re reading this then we go together now. Happy Valentine’s Day boo!
As some of you may know, I’ve recently moved into a new place and am working diligently to fill it up with handmade EVERYTHING. I am a huge fan of witty sayings, sarcasm, and double entendres. They pretty much spill from my mouth when I talk, so it’s only fitting that my house decor be a reflection of me, right?
This pattern uses 100% cotton yarn so that the mat would be a little absorbent. I knew that the mat would need something on the bottom to make sure it didnt slip and slide all over the place, so I got the bright idea to sew the piece onto a cushioned bath. BUT I couldn’t find the right sized mat so that idea was cancelled. I then remembered that I used a glue gun on the bottom of some slippers, so it has to work on a bath mat right? YEP! So now I won’t bust my butt when I get out of the shower. WINNING!
I’ve had this pattern in my head for a while now, so I figured what better day to release it then on Valentine’s Day (wink, wink).
Okay. Here it is….
