Crochet Dishcloth and Washcloth Patterns

Free crochet dishcloth patterns and washcloths: textured scrubbies, waffle stitch cloths, spa sets and simple cotton squares that take under an hour.

These are the projects that made a lot of us finish our first thing. They are small, flat, entirely forgiving of an uneven edge, and you can use them the same evening you make them.

Use 100 percent cotton. Acrylic does not absorb water and will not scrub, and it melts if it touches a hot pan. See also kitchen and bath patterns and beginner guides.
