Last year, I designed the Cross Stitched Apple Earrings. This year, I wanted to take the basic design, and create a corner to corner (C2C) project. It only took a little tweaking to turn the cross stitch pattern into a corner to corner graph pattern, and so these Apple Washcloths were born.

I did the red apple one first, then thought of a fun green apple. I even thought of doing a yellow apple, but after finishing the green one, I wasn’t up for another. You could even get a little more creative, and mix some yellow and red patches together.

Materials:

  • 78 Yards of Worsted Weight Cotton Yarn - I used Lily Sugar n Cream, and Crafter’s Secret Cotton. For the Red Apple: Lily Sugar for All in Yellow, Red, Mod Green and Warm Brown. For the Green Apple: Lily Sugar in Hot Green, Mod Green and Warm Brown, and Crafter’s Secret in Taupe.
  • H8/5mm Crochet Hook (for Lily Sugar n Cream)
  • I9/5.5mm Crochet Hook (for Crafter’s Secret Cotton)
  • Tapestry Needle for Weaving in Ends
  • Optional, Jewelry Pliers

Material Notes:
Yarn Alternatives: Bernat’s Handicrafter, Lion Brand’s Kitchen Cotton. Or any worsted weight yarn for use in anything other than washcloth.

I love using jewelry pliers to help pull my tapestry needle through cotton yarn.

Time Spent:
I finished each washcloth in about an hour and a half.

Gauge:
Lily Sugar n Cream & H8/5mm Hook: 16 HDC by 10 Rows = 4”
