C2c Valentine's Washcloth

I've had Valentine's on my brain lately. One of the things I wanted to make was a heart washcloth (could also be used as an afghan square). Went to Hobby Lobby, and found the perfect colors for it! As a washcloth, C2C can sometimes become saggy because of the spaces in the boxes, and by spaces, I really just mean like a slit from the beginning chain that all the stitches are worked onto. I use my washcloths either for decorative purposes, or just to dry things up - not to wash anything with because of this. To make a better washcloth, go down a hook size for tighter stitches and/or use half double crochets in place of double crochets.

Hello! Today I am SO excited to be sharing another washcloth pattern with you all. I just love how quick, easy, and totally adjustable washcloths can be, and it seems like you all do as well! As always when it comes to crocheting wash and dishcloths you should always use a 100% cotton yarn. Hobby Lobby’s I Love This Cotton is the perfect yarn to use for this pattern, but really any cotton yarn will do.

Crunch Stitch Washcloths

Use this pattern for the Crunch Stitch Washcloths to learn a new stitch and create something useful for your home at the same time. These washcloths are beginner-friendly, and you have a choice to make them either in one color or using two colors. My favorite one is the pink and blue version because you can use leftover scrap yarn from bigger projects. The solid bumpy texture of the crunch stitch is perfect for these washcloths. They make beautiful gift sets paired with a handmade soap or body wash.

Plastic Bag Holder - Free Crochet Pattern

Recently we made a move into a new house, as we were unpacking I began to collect a large pile of plastic grocery bags. I generally use this bags pretty often so I didn’t want to throw them away. That’s when I realized I didn’t have a bag holder to put them in. Moving can be pretty expensive so the last thing I wanted to do was purchase one knowing full well I could make one myself, so I did! 

Plastic Bag Holder - Free Crochet Pattern

You can easily make this bag as long as you want to fit more grocery bags, my family is pretty small so I made a smaller bag holder. If you want a larger one just work more rounds in-between the increases/decreases. 

I always recommend using cotton yarn when working an anything household related. For this pattern I used Peaches and Cream’s Cotton yarn which you can find HERE. They have so many colors to choose from!

Simple Shells Washcloth: Quick and Easy Textured Stitch Pattern

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!
