If you have been looking for an easy beginner-friendly dishcloth pattern, then this is it! My modern striped dishcloth pattern works up fast and is one of the best projects to start with for those who are just learning how to crochet!

Looking For a Way to Use up Left Over Yarn?

I created this modern striped dishcloth yesterday after being inspired by my ever-growing pile of yarn. I have a ton of leftover yarn to use up, so I figured I might as well make a dishcloth with it! Who doesn’t need always need that!

I used Lily Sugar ‘N Cream cotton yarn in 5 colors, but you could also do this is just one color if you prefer! One color during crocheting means that you don’t have to change colors and weave in all those ends!

Fiber: 100% Cotton
Yardage: 645 meters / 706 yards (varies)
Hook: 5 mm (H-8)
