This simple dishcloth is an easy crochet project for new crocheters and experienced. A great dishcloth for washing dishes and countertops.

I think this would be the perfect dishcloth to teach my granddaughter to crochet. Thank you very much.
You’re welcome! That is so nice for you to do together, I hope she enjoys making it!
What’s this stitch called?
Hi, the stitch is the moss stitch 🙂
The pattern doesn’t say turn at end of row. Do you turn?
Yes, you turn after each row.
A friend in Wisconsin asked me to make her dish clothes. I made her four and mailed them, She then asked me if I could make some for her grandson so he could give them to his mother for Christmas. I made four more different colors and mailed them. Now she wants to learn how to crochet . Thank You M from Ct.
That is wonderful Maureen! Thanks for sharing!
