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.

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.

Easy Crochet Dishcloth – Free Pattern

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.
