Single Crochet and Cross Stitch Textured Dishcloth

August 26, 2022 · Rhelena · 4 Comments

This textured dishcloth crochet pattern has a nice texture on both sides of the fabric. It’s a nice solid stitch pattern, yet has a nice drape, which makes it ideal for dishes, the bath, or for cleaning around the home.

Work it up in a solid color as shown, or use up your leftovers from the yarn stash. With this stitch you could use two colors and change the color after each row. Or, use up a small piece of yarn and work one row of contrast towards the beginning and end of the cloth.

Regardless of what you choose, this textured crochet dishcloth pattern makes for a great housewarming gift for just about anyone on your list.

The Size

The finished cloth measures approximately 7.5 inches square after blocking. However, it can easily be adjusted to any size you need in the multiple provided for the starting chains.

The Stitch Pattern

This crochet dishcloth is worked with the single crochet stitches in one row, and the single crochet cross stitch in the next. When worked together the two stitches create a nice solid fabric that is perfect for all your washing needs.

The Yarn

I chose Bernat Handicrafter, which is a medium worsted weight cotton yarn.

I used a 6 mm crochet hook for the main part of the dishcloth and 5.5 mm for the edge.

For this crochet project I chose a larger hook than what’s recommended on the yarn label because the cross stitches tend to pull together for a stiffer fabric. And for dishcloths you really don’t want the fabric to be too stiff.

    I think probably you meant right side (not ride) in the note — unless there’s new crochet jargon I should be learning — which tells me only that SpelChek ‘got’ you! (SpelChek is his formal nickname. His name is actually Charles E. MisPel, known to his friends (like me) as Chuckie.) Looks to be a great instruction and if memory decides to behave itself I’ll come back and review the actual product. Thanks for posting this . . .
