sylvialee,

If you do an internet search for tawashi scrubby you may find what you are looking for. I'm not sure if these are crocheted or knitted.

Hope this helps.

Here's a crochet pattern for a spiral scrubbie. I've made several as gifts.

Here is a link that might be useful: Spiral Scrubbie Pattern

If you join Ravelry, there is knit and crochet patterns for it in their free patterns. Joining is free. One is called a Tribble.

Hey......Thanks for the good tips. I have checked out each site mentioned - found some excellent patterns and am now a member of Ravelry. I did find the pattern (and it's free) that I was looking for. Only thing, I have to brush up on my crochet skills. Those round scrubbies look pretty easy though and there an instruction site on U tube. Thanks again, you gals always come through.

Ravelry has several patterns that will not require that you brush up on your crochet skills, as they are knit.
