Looking for free patterns for a dishcloth to try? I have gathered several different free kitchen dishcloth patterns. I made a herringbone and an even berry dishcloth, single double, or blue wave dishtowel.
Crocheted washcloth or dishcloth patterns are great for learning a new crochet stitch. You can practice a new stitch technique.

You do not need much yarn, 1 skein of Sugar n Cream yarn or 2 skeins of any cotton yarn to make to matching dish cloths.
It is also a great time to try different color and stitch combinations. There are lots of different colors of cotton yarn in solids and variegated colors.
Washcloths are great for beginner crocheters too. You don’t need much yarn and you can practice before you take on a larger crochet project.
You can use them as a kitchen cleaning cloth, dish towel, or washcloth. They work great and are durable.
These are great gifts too. You can choose a color to go with their décor or a neutral that would go with anyone’s style. They are practical too.
