nylon netting pot scrubbers
Does anyone make them and have directions on how to make them. I have bought one from a Mennonite store that seems to have used a large hook. That one is 3 3/4" across, it starts with a center ring that is closed, no hole, then DC for three rounds then gets smaller on the back. I have not seen one that has larger full rounds of DC that I really would like to make.
Would like to know what size hook might be used to achieve the same fuller look. I have looked online and do not see anything that looks like the one I bought. I tried making one with a J hook, from online instructions but mine came out with skinny DC and not as filled as the one I bought.
Also what size do you cut the strips, 1.5" or 2".
Any help is greatly appreciated

I saw some on Youtube that use a "magic loop" so no hole in the middle, using tulle cut 3" wide. Link here:

There are many others on Youtube as well, such as:

Prism99, thank you for the links, never thought to check Youtube. Now am finding some use tulle and others use netting. Which one works the best, want to give them to my GD's who now have their own homes.

Do you think the dish/pan material would be the netting or tulle.

I don’t crochet, so I knit mine. Cast on 24 stitches, use #8 or 9 needles (short if you have them) and knit every row until you have a scrubby. I use #10 or 11 needles for dish rag and cast on 42 stitches to make it oversized because I found cotton scrubby shrinks after washing.
