The Simply Spa Set: Free Crochet Pattern.
Today I am happy to share my Simply Spa Set with you. Everyone is feeling a little stressed and unsure what the future holds right now as we are in the midst of a world pandemic. One thing we can do while COVID19 is still impacting the way we all live is a little self care. By taking some time out to breathe and reflect, do some positive affirmations or simply process our lives right now we can feel empowered in some way to take personal responsibility about self care and make time in our busy lives for some bubble baths, or meditation, or running outside in nature. There are lots of activities we can do safely that will ensure we are conscious of the need to consider our whole being at this time, and not just the physical self.
Hi everyone. I am so excited to share this new free crochet pattern with you. The Simply Spa Set makes up so fast. Make one for yourself and your self pampering moments. The crochet basket makes the perfect holder for your spa cloths or reusable face scrubbies.
