If you’ve been searching for the perfect crochet gift item, this washcloth fits the bill! I made several sets for gifting and have used them myself - they are truly wonderful. The border gives the dishcloth the structure it needs to keep its shape better than other knit and crochet cloths.

This PDF pattern includes 3 full color photo tutorials.

Finished Measurements (after light blocking):
7.5” W x 7.5” H or 19cm x 19cm

Supplies:

  • G (4.25mm) hook or hook to meet gauge
  • Approx 65 yards (or one skein) of a worsted weight cotton yarn such as Dishie from WeCrochet
  • Scissors
  • Tapestry needle
  • Measuring tape

Gauge: 14.5 sts x 12.5 rows in 4” x 4”.
To check your gauge, make a swatch: Ch 17. Follow the cloth instructions for a total of 15 rows. Measure your swatch excluding the first and last rows, and the sts at the edges. If your
swatch is too big or too small, try a different hook.
