Sunny Crochet Dishcloth

Materials:

Yarn: Cotton worsted weight yarn (approximately 100 yards)
Hook: Size H/8 (5.0 mm) crochet hook
Tapestry needle (for weaving in ends)

Gauge:

To achieve the correct gauge, crochet a swatch of 4 inches by 4 inches and check that you have 12 stitches and 14 rows of double crochet. If your gauge is off, adjust your hook size accordingly.

Abbreviations:

ch: chain
dc: double crochet
st(s): stitch(es)
sl st: slip stitch

Instructions:

Foundation Chain: Chain 29. This will be the width of your dishcloth.
Row 1: In the 4th chain from the hook, make 1 double crochet (dc). Make 1 dc in each of the next 25 chains. In the last chain, make 2 dc (this creates a corner). Turn your work.
Row 2: Chain 3 (this counts as your first dc). Make 1 dc in the next 26 stitches. In the last stitch, make 2 dc. Turn your work.
Row 3: Repeat Row 2 until you have completed 10 rows of dc stitches.
Creating Texture: For Row 11, chain 3 and make 1 dc in the next 13 stitches. Now, make a chain space: chain 2 and skip the next 2 stitches. Continue making 1 dc in the next 14 stitches. In the last stitch, make 2 dc. Turn your work.
Repeat Texture Rows: Continue alternating between rows of dc and the textured pattern until you reach 20 total rows.
Border: To finish, create a simple border. Chain 1, then single crochet (sc) evenly around all four edges of the dishcloth, placing 3 sc in each corner. Slip stitch to the first sc to join.

Finishing:

Weave in all loose ends with your tapestry needle. To block your dishcloth, lightly wet it and pin it into shape, allowing it to dry fully. This will help flatten out any uneven stitches.

Optional Variations:

Feel free to experiment with different yarn colors or use a different stitch pattern for added texture!
