Back side. 
 Starting side
I decided to alter the regular pattern I use for most of my scrubbies and use all single crochet stitches and do an extra rim row to make it more ball-like.  



Total time = 30 minutes



·         6 mm crochet hook or J hook

·         Falk 3-Inch Net Mesh – Blue



Pattern:

Make a magic circle



Row 1

In the magic circle chain 2, and 11 single crochet stitch (12 total)

Slip stitch to connect circle



Row 2

Single crochet into same stitch as chain 2

2 single crochet in each stitch



Row 3 - Edge

Chain 1, single crochet stitch in the back loop only of each stitch



Row 4

Chain 1, single crochet stitch in the back loop only of each stitch (same as Row 3)



Row 5

Single crochet in back on each stitch for 3 stitches, then toggle 2 (decrease) and repeat



Row 6

Single crochet in back on each stitch for 2 stitches, then toggle 2 (decrease) and repeat



Row 7

Toggle 2 (decrease) and repeat until 5-6 stitches are left.



Closing off

Sew or weave with hook through the tops of the remaining stitches to close up the hole. On the last stitch you pull through, leave the loop and knot to finish off and secure.
