Scrubbie free crochet pattern

Just a few days ago, we were on a drive through the Hill Country in Central Texas when I noticed the Firewheels. The first time I noticed them was three years ago when my son (5 at the time) pointed them out and declared they were his favorite wildflower. Since then, I noticed them every time they pop out and even look for them amongst the others.

One evening, while I was waiting on dinner in the oven, I saw these two cotton colors sitting together and the first thing I thought about was those Firewheels! My heart smiled so I grabbed a hook and turned on Netflix… and here we are. I just love them. The hold just enough soapy water to wash out my cups and glassware easily without retaining so much that they don't dry quickly. You absolutely must try them.
