Small Menstrual Maxi Pad Pantiliner
2020 Update: Due to the pandemic, this pattern (along with a separate heavy crochet pad pattern and a separate heavy knit pad pattern) are now free for the foreseeable future.
Hi there! This small pantiliner pad consists of one absorbent cotton layer, designed so that you can make a whole bunch of these to swap out as frequently as needed for all the light days of your cycle.
It is discreet, intended to be carried new in your handbag, purse, or backpack as backup for your tampon or cup, in case of emergency, &/or for travel.
(For a large double-thick pad for your heaviest day or two, see my other crochet Feminine Pad posting with the optional rainbow stripes, which has waterproof insert layer info.)
This original pattern design in US crochet terms may not be distributed or sold as your own, but feel free to sell a finished pad made from this pattern!
level: beginner
skills: know how to ch (chain), sl st (slip stitch), sc (single crochet), sc dec (sc decrease = insert hook, yarn over, pull back through leaving two loops on hook, insert hook into next st, yarn over, pull back through leaving three loops on hook, yarn over, pull through all three loops; 1 sc dec made)
hook: F/3.75mm
yarn: Lily Sugar ‘n Cream 100% cotton in 2 colors (ideally black & a contrast color)
additional materials: one 1/2” to 5/8” (13-16 mm) wide button per pad
size: pad laid flat measures ~6” (15 cm) long x ~5 1/4” (13 cm) wide at wings
gauge: 4” square = sc 18 sts wide by 21 rows tall
As a crocheter for 20+ years now & a former professional proofreader, you can crochet this with the confidence that it has been gone over with a fine-tooth comb.
Feel free to contact me with any questions, & I’ll typically get back to you within 24 hours.
Enjoy!
