Mini C2C Crochet Stripe Dishcloth

For Home

If you have started working on C2C crochet stitches, you can go for this patterned dishcloth. Practice your C2C crochet skills with cotton yarn in purple and blue colors while making this kitchen cloth. It would be easier for you to work on each stripe separately with an appropriate size crochet hook. The size of this cloth is smaller. Therefore, you can go with mini corner to corner crochet stitches for your ease.

Textured Front Post Dishcloth

For Home

I make this textured front post dishcloth often as a gift for my friends and for use in my own kitchen and bathroom.

This design would look great with any ombre or solid color cotton yarn. Materials: Lily Cotton Sugar n Cream, Key Lime Pie Ombre Crochet Stitches: chain, single crochet, double crochet, front post double crochet Time to create: 30-45 minutes

Simple Shells Washcloth: Quick and Easy Textured Stitch Pattern

For Home

The Simple Shells Washcloth is made with alternating rows of solid stitches and groups of shells, creating a pretty surface for scrubbing anything you need in the bath and kitchen! This washcloth is worked in rows using chains and double crochet stitches. You can easily customize the stitch repeat in multiples of 5+2 (+2 for the turning chain), then work any odd multiple of rows. While you don't see the term shell in the specialty stitch and technique section of this pattern, the group of five double crochet stitches worked into one place is a shell. Either way of writing the instruction is correct, and we hope beginners enjoy the simplicity in this version (the stitch chart should help, too). THIS IS A GREAT PATTERN BECAUSE: Washcloths are fun projects to learn new crochet stitches (especially when you follow our crochet chart with the written instructions)! You can use these in the bath or kitchen (plus, they make great gifts)! This project works great with cotton yarns (just one skein or less)! You'll get to practice a lot of crochet skills: rows, stitch tension, stitch counting and recognition, shells (5 double crochet stitches into 1 space) , borders, gauge and size, finishing techniques and more!
