Face Scrubbies ( Ribbed Circles )

I made my circles to be face scrubbies, so cotton yarn was the best for that. If you plan on using them for something else ( coasters, joining them to make another project, etc. ), they need not be cotton, but textured yarns wont show the ribbing as well. Also keep in mind how changing hooks will affect the size and density of your stitches and see what turns out the best.

Cotton yarn 
H/8 5.00 mm hook
