I try my best to be green, so I made these reusable make-up pads to use instead of cotton cosmetic pads.
I used an upcycled mixed yarn (20% denim, 80% cotton) from "Wool and The Gang". I made a round form, so it looks like a pad and it is easy and quick to make.

Supplies

  • scissors
  • crochet needle
  • yarn

Step 1.: First Loop

After doing the main movements 3-4 times, use the end of the thread to pull together the knots.

Step 7.: Repeat

After gathering together the knots, use the same technique but instead of going under 1, put your crochet needle under the upper row, which consists of 2 threads.

Do the same movement again and again around, until you reach the size you needed.

After you gained the size you wanted, just finish the crochet with a knot.

Enjoy!
