I really love the moss stitch, it is one of my favorite stitches. I like to make blankets and dishcloths with this stitch, it has a very nice texture, it's easy and still got this very elegant look. I also prefer to work from corner to corner, it gives me a lot more flexibility in my work, you can decide the dimension of your piece as you go. For this pattern, use 100% worsted cotton yarn. Multi-color yarn will create a beautiful effect, but it will also be beautiful with a solid color!

TagsDouble 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.
Even Moss Stitch Dishcloth
Using cotton yarn this dishcloth pattern is a fast and easy crochet project that can be stitched up in an evening. These make a great handmade gift idea. The Even Moss stitch uses a combo of half double crochet and the slip stitch to create the pattern that gives a unique textured appearance. This pattern can be made in a set of dishcloths or just a single dishcloth. You can also use this as a washcloth instead of a dishcloth if you would like.

Create this beautiful crochet shamrock dishcloth (and pot of gold dishcloth) or potholder (directions for both)! The dishcloths are made with 100% cotton yarn, following a simple chart.

Quick and Easy Crochet Dishcloth Pattern
This Quick and Easy Crochet Dishcloth uses single crochet stitches. This crochet pattern is easy to read and is perfect for beginners. Great way to practice learning stitches. Only use 100% cotton yarn to create dishcloths. The finished project is 10 inches by 10 inches roughly. There is no border around this dishcloth, but you may add one if you wish. I used Sugar and Cream cotton yarn in the color sage in the photograph. Enjoy the pattern!
Corner To Corner Crochet Wattle Stitch
I've been playing with the Wattle stitch lately. The stitch is very easy and repetitive, but still has a unique and elegant look, to me, it looks like little flowers. I like taking interesting stitches and turn them into a corner to corner version. The C2C method is one of my favorite methods to work when I'm making blankets or dishcloths, it's very flexible, it allows you to decide the finished size of your work as you go. For this tutorial, I made a washcloth pattern, but you can make whatever you want with this technique (like blankets for ex.)!
