HDC Open Stitch Crochet Dishcloth Pattern

This open-stitch crochet dishcloth pattern is quick and easy to make. The open stitch gives it a pretty fabric and helps to shorten drying time, which is always a plus for crocheted dishcloths. For a solid dishcloth, try this single crochet dishcloth pattern.

I used a mercerized cotton yarn called Lion Brand 24/7 cotton. The yarn is durable and perfect for all your scrubbing needs. Another bonus of using this yarn is that it produces a much thinner cloth than many other cotton yarns.

A stitch multiple is provided to make it easy for you to adjust the size as needed.
