Crochet Beginner Washcloths
Beginner washcloths are ones that use easy crochet stitches, and are a quick small project. You will find that most easy skill level washcloths will use basic stitches, are easy to understand and use a four weight yarn, which is great for a new crocheter.
I know when I started crocheting that I was always on the lookout for simple but beautiful patterns, and I think these washcloths are just that. Learn more below about the stitches and the yarn you’ll want to know about before you get started on your easy washcloth pattern.
Stitches
Below are some of the most common crochet stitches that you will find in basic or easy crochet washcloth designs.
Yarn
When crocheting washcloths, I recommend using a 100% cotton yarn or a cotton yarn blend. These types of fibers are easy to take care of and wash up great, which means you’ll get lots of use out of them.
Take a look at one of my favorite cotton yarns to use when crocheting washcloth designs.
Most of the patterns below are a four weight yarn and use a H-5 mm crochet hook size. Make sure to look over the pattern to see the recommended hook size, just in case.
