I love crocheting washcloths and incorporating fun colours and stitches within them. My own pile of washcloths is growing so much that I’ve started giving them to family and friends when we see each other. They work up really quickly and are perfect for tossing in a small bag for travelling or when you have a few minutes in your day to pass some time.
Today I’m posting my latest crochet pattern called the Cute Colour Block Washcloth. It uses simple stitches but is a great opportunity to practice your colour changes and explore working with different shades.

Today I have another quick project for you, one that’s practical and uses a fun variation of the single crochet stitch. The extended single crochet stitch is used throughout and works up slightly taller than the traditional version while still making a solid fabric that’s perfect for dishcloths. It’s a very nice stitch to use with a solid shade but works well with a variegated or striped yarn, often with colourful and fun results.

The suzette stitch makes another appearance on my blog in this new crochet washcloth design. It’s definitely one of my favourite stitches and with the beautiful texture and dense appearance, you can see why it’s a great choice for projects like washcloths.
The simple ridges in the middle are eye catching and create a nice break in the repetitiveness of the suzette stitch. This washcloth works up quickly and has a simple edging to provide a neat and tidy finish. Learn more about this design and find the free pattern below…

There’s also links to more thorough walk-throughs if you’re learning these stitches for the first time. *Update: as of April 30th, 2024, this pattern is now available for free on my website!*
