A crochet dishcloth is wonderful for scrubbing dirty dishes. If you haven’t got one so far, you should definitely try the Primrose Dishcloth crochet pattern by Jamey from Dabbles & Babbles. It will also be a very practical gift and at the same time a good chance to try the primrose stitch.
Why This Dishcloth Deserves a Place in Your Home
Crochet home accessories are not only eco-friendly, but they are also functional and introduce beautiful handmade touches to your living space. This crochet dishcloth pattern is no different! It features a wonderfully textured design that looks pretty and will work perfectly for scrubbing.
The fact that you’re making your home items yourself allows you to choose whatever color combinations you love.
Materials You’ll Need
Cotton yarns are the only choice when it comes to crocheting dishcloths. They are absorbent and durable, and I can tell you that once used, you will be using them all the time.
The sample seen in the photo was made with Knit One, Crochet Too 2nd Time Cotton. It’s a fantastic blend of 75% recycled cotton and 25% acrylic, whose qualities will make your dishcloth dry a little faster than when made with 100% cotton.
To make an accessory that measures 9” x 9”, you will also need a 4 mm crochet hook.
