Post stitches add gentle exfoliating texture to this circular face pad, which works up quickly with two strands of yarn held together. The Beautiful Morning Face Pad is one in a set of three crochet cotton face pads that can also be used as soft scalp washing pads for those experiencing traumatic hair loss when crocheted with undyed organic yarn. This pattern meets the donation requirements for The Remissionaries.
