I love white cotton! From the sheets and lace draperies in my bedroom to the towels and cloths in my kitchen, I simply can't get enough of the stuff! Yesterday, I had a few hours of "unassigned time" while riding in the car on the way to visit family in Rockford so, I decided to made productive use of it by crocheting some fresh, white, cotton, kitchen wash cloths.
I found the FREE pattern, here . Thank you, Design Sponge!
The only alteration that I make is that I use a size H crochet hook because I like my cloths a little larger. Using size H, my cloths turn out just under 12" x 12" square prior to washing.
The pattern calls for only chain and half-double crochet stitches. Easy peasy! There's a link to a tutorial for how to make HDC, just in case you need a refresher!
Have a wonderful Sunday!

Oh, how I wish I could crochet! These are beautiful. I LOVE white cotton. Are they pretty absorbent? I imagine that the white cotton is a bit more absorbent then yarn would be. Do you sell them? Thank you for sharing with air your laundry Friday, S.
ReplyDeleteThey look so pretty. Where do you find such a large skein of cotton yarn? I love passing time in the car, or waiting for my kids at 4-H fairs and shows, with crochet hook in hand. I make very similar crocheted dish cloths and love giving them as little gifts and make extra to sell.
ReplyDeleteHi Elizabeth! I found them at Hobby Lobby near the cotton yarns. They do go on sale from time-to-time but I always print a 40% off coupon (you can get the coupon online)to take with me when ever I go. Hope that this helps!
