Earlier in the week I shared with you my tutorial for the Crunch Stitch, and today I have a fun and re-usable pattern to go with it! I love to use my sweeper mop because of how easy it is. When I ran out of the disposable cloths that came with it I didn't want to buy more. I wanted to make something I could re-use. I googled for patterns and didn't find what I had pictured in my head to use. There are so many great patterns out there, but my favorite stitch for washing and scrubbing is the crunch stitch. So I decided to make my own. The texture in the crunch stitch is why I love it for cleaning and the look of the uniformed stitches is an extra bonus. There are few stitches involved making it a great project to whip up quickly while watching your favorite show. Because they make up fast and affordably they make great gifts and inventory for a craft fair! Below I have used 24/7 Cotton by Lion Brand, but I have also used I Love This Cotton by Hobby Lobby for them in the past. They both have a great color selection, the yarn doesn't fade as much or as quickly as others I've tried, and it's nice and soft to work with. I used one skein to make one mop cover and still had 1/4 of the skein left over! When completed, these mop covers measure 10 inches long and 5 inches wide. To add a little extra flair I wrapped mine in these fun printable labels from The Knotty Boss! They make it perfect for giving as a gift or displaying in your shop/craft fair!

Materials - - 130 yards of worsted cotton yarn - 4mm crochet hook - Scissors - Tapestry needle to sew/weave in ends - Stitch markers (optional, they can come in handy to keep rows even) US Abbreviations - Ch - Chain HDC - Half double crochet Sl st - Slip stitch SC - Single crochet Gauge - 22 rows should be a 5" x 5" square, adjust your hook size accordingly if your sample swatch is a different size (Example: Try going up a hook size if your swatch is smaller; Go down a hook size if your swatch is bigger.) Mop Cover- Chain 25 Row 1: *HDC in the 2nd ch from your hook, sl st in the next*, *repeat until the end of the row, ch 1 and turn (24 stitches) NOTE- Each row will always start with an HDC and end with a slip stitch. It can be handy to put a stitch marker in the last stitch of each row, this way when you reach the end you will easily see where your last stitch will go. Row 2: *HDC in the first stitch, sl st in the next*, *repeat until the end of the row, ch 1 and turn (24 stitches) Rows 3-76: Repeat row 2 Your work should measure 16 inches long by 5 inches wide. Do not fasten off, continue with border below. Border- SC around each of the four sides of your work, completing 2 SC in each corner. Assembly - Fold each side in 3 inches and sew the edges together to create a pocket. I sewed down through the stitches and back up the next to give it a nice layered look. Weave in your ends. Your mop cover is complete! My favorite way to use mine is to spray a small amount of my favorite cleaner onto the floor in front of me and then mop right over! I hope you have enjoyed making this pattern. Feel free to tag me on Instagram, I'd love to see your mop covers!
