Materials Needed

• Yarn: Worsted weight cotton yarn in golden yellow
• Hook: 5.0 mm crochet hook
• Gauge: 14 stitches and 16 rows = 4 inches in pattern

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Chain 32: Begin by making a slip knot and chaining 32 stitches. This will form the foundation of your dishcloth.
2. Row 1: Skip the first chain from the hook. Single crochet (sc) in each of the remaining chains across the row. You should have a total of 31 single crochets at the end of this row. Turn your work.
3. Row 2: Chain 1 to start the new row. Now, you will create the textured pattern:
   • *Front Post Double Crochet (fpdc) around the next stitch, Back Post Double Crochet (bpdc) around the next stitch; repeat from * across the row.
   • Make sure to end this row with a single crochet in the last stitch. Turn your work.
4. Row 3: Chain 1 to start again. Single crochet in each stitch across the row. Turn your work.
5. Repeat Rows 2 and 3: Continue alternating between Row 2 and Row 3 until your piece measures approximately 8 inches in height. This will give your dishcloth a lovely textured look and feel.
6. Finish Up: Once your dishcloth reaches the desired size, fasten off your yarn by cutting it, leaving a tail of about 6 inches. Pull the tail through the last loop on your hook to secure it.
7. Weave in Ends: Using a yarn needle, weave in any loose ends to tidy up your dishcloth. This will ensure it looks polished and professional.
