Peachy Round Crochet Dishcloth Pattern
This peachy round crochet dishcloth pattern features a nice open stitch to allow for quick drying. It is worked up in two colors, but feel free to use one or as many colors as you like.
Another beauty of this round crochet dishcloth is that you can increase and decrease the final size as you like. I like mine on the smaller side, so I finished off at about 7.5″. For a small coaster or scrubby you have the option to fasten off at about 4″.
But my favorite thing about this dishcloth is that it has a nice soft and loose drape, which makes it ideal for washing dishes. And that makes it ideal for adding to a gift basket during the holidays or any time of the year.
The Yarn
I used Bernat Handicrafter Cotton, a medium worsted weight cotton yarn. It’s ideal for dishcloths as it’s strong and durable. You can purchase the yarn in big balls, which is economic. Or, go with the smaller balls, which give you lots of color options to play around with.
Any other dishcloth cotton can be substituted. You could even work this with a cotton and a scrubby yarn if you wanted to.

The Stitch Pattern
This crochet dishcloth pattern is worked up in the extended single crochet and chain one spaces, also known as the pike stitch. You skip all chains beginning at round two. The pattern is increased in each round until you get to the desired size.
For the final round, a round of single crochets and picots is worked to give it a simple, yet pretty and decorative edge.
