Worked in the round, this rug is made of 4 strands of yarn held together. Play with fun colors or a classy monochromatic look as you practice your double crochet, chain, and increase techniques.
Double Thick Scrubby Dishcloth
I whipped up this very quick and easy scrubby dishcloth. If you haven’t worked with Scrubby Yarn before, this would make a great first project. This easy dishcloth is crocheted with a larger sized hook (7 mm) and uses only simple stitches. The Double Thick Scrubby Dishcloth is crocheted with 2-strands of Scrubby Yarn held together. I chose to use 2 different colors from my Stash but you could just as easily use 2 strands from one ball of yarn. This scrubby dishcloth took me less than 15 minutes to crochet - so I'm sure you will have it done quickly too!
Double thick and super squishy, its small size makes it particularly good at getting into smaller corners and edges. I personally prefer smaller dishcloths for cleaning, they are just easier for my hands to hold onto! Try this pattern and let me know what you think! Maybe you will decide you prefer small dishcloths too! You can substitute any yarn and hook for this stitch pattern - just remember when you substitute if your gauge is different, the finished size of your project will also be different.
Chunky Doily Rug
Think you have no patience for crocheting lace doilies? Try this! Stitched on a giant hook with three strands of yarn held together, this crochet rug pattern works up quickly and makes a major statement in any room.
Stash Baskets
This is a quick to crochet stash buster project for medium weight yarn. Crochet this small basket / container to store things like crochet hooks, pencils or pens. Perfect for managing your desk clutter AND using up some of that leftover medium weight yarn! Worked with 2 strands of medium weight yarn held together this lovely textured container can be worked up in about one hour. If you would like to use some stashed bulky weight yarn 5 you can easily substitute it instead of the 2 strands of medium weight yarn. Have fun and show me your finished baskets please! Rhondda
Crochet Reindeer Rug Pattern
This Crochet Reindeer Rug is a lace animal rug or reading mat using a granny square technique.
This adorable rug is a great addition to any children's room, it will be your favorite place to play and play your child!
Whispering Pines Dishcloth
The whispering pines dishcloth is a great crochet project to add to the home and they are also so useful to have as well! Instead of buying dishcloths you can just easily make your own with this free crochet pattern and you can make them in all the colors that you want too, how fun! I made the whispering pines dishcloth with a single strand of yarn but if you wanted them really thick (which i know some people like) you can easily hold two strands together and just follow the free pattern below. If you do go with the two strands held together just note they will end up larger than mine and you will need to adjust you hook accordingly and you will need more cotton yarn to do this!
