Knitting with baling twine

I got the idea to make scrubbies out of baling twine. A 13 knitting needle was too small. I went to a 19 and it was much eaiser to knit. I knitted it in garter stitch with 1 strand of cotton yarn. I had to be careful not to make it too big, the first one was too heavy. I made the 1st one 10 rows of 10 stitches. The 2nd one was 5 rows of 10 stitches. I believe the best size will be 5 rows of 6 stitches. When I finished the scrubby side, I did a row of tunsian crochet to switch the knitting to crochet and croched double croched all the way around 3 times, decreasing every stitch on the 2 short sides and then joined the long sides with slip stitch. Unfortunately Tank thought the 2nd one I made was a toy. He was only able to pull 1 strand out, so I think I can fix it. I will edit this post with photos later.

To seal the ends of the baling twine melt them in a candle. If you don't it will fray.
