Materials:

• H hook, 5.00mm
• Small amount of medium cotton yarn (size 4) in 3 colors (for the main colors of the dishcloth). Picking your colors: Make sure to pick a dark, light and middle color. The middle color should look like the result if you were to mix the dark and light colors together. Pick 1 more lighter color for the border. I used Lily Sugar n’ Cream.
• Blunt needle to weave in ends

Notes:

• When switching colors, yarn over as you finish the dc with the new color
