The Perfect Bath Puff / Bath Loofa -- Hand Crocheted

I've been on a quest to crochet the perfect bath puff. The 100% cotton ones seem too heavy and fade more with every wash. And the nylon ones from the store are too rough and fall apart quickly!
<br />
<br />So ...
<br />
<br />(( Drum roll please ))
<br />
<br />A 50% cotton, 50% acrylic blend works perfectly. BUT, so does a 100% acrylic yarn. It's still soft but tough enough to scrub your skin without hurting. It's perfect!
<br />
<br />This bath puff is made with 100% acrylic yarn.
<br />
<br />This bath loofa / bath puff is machine washable and dryable. It will last much longer than the nylon ones. This 50/50 blend will not shrink and it will keep the color bright.
<br />
<br />I'm off to make more ...
