I love knitting. I find it very calming. It helps me keep my stress level under control. I also love knitting things that are reusable. Dishcloths are one of my favorite things to make, and so are little scrubbies for washing my face. They are a great substitute for single use face wipes. In honor of Earth Day, here's my pattern for a simple cotton scrubbie.
