Textured Stripes Dishcloth

Crochet this textured stripes dishcloth in one or more colors. I used three, but you can just as easily do it in two and still get a nice result.

The crochet dishcloth pattern is given on the small side, but you can very easily adjust this to any size you like. Crochet a little coaster, a placemat, hotpad, bathmat, or even a cozy blanket using this pretty and striped stitch pattern.
