Mercerized Cotton Yarn Dishcloth Pattern

Jump to Pattern

This cotton yarn dishcloth pattern is worked up in a mercerized cotton, but any cotton yarn will work just as well. You can easily adjust the size in any even number of chains. It’s beginner-friendly and works up quick and easy.

A cotton yarn dishcloth is draped over a glass.

I worked this dishcloth in Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton yarn. It’s a nice sturdy cloth, and has good scrubbing abilities. It’s perfect for use in the kitchen or bathroom and makes for a nice gift idea as well. Also, mercerized cotton is a strong yarn, so I think this will be a very durable dish or washcloth to have.

The pattern is worked simply with a row of single crochets alternated with a row of single crochets and chains one spaces. You can’t really see the spaces in the image above, but once the cloth is wet it stretches nicely and you have a nice flexible cloth for washing your dishes.

Although square after crocheting, it stretches to a length of about 11″ when wet. So it’s actually a fairly large cloth, even though it looks small after completion. How you make it is up to you, but you can always decrease by a few rows if 11″ long is too big.
