When I started designing this easy and quick crochet washcloth I had just finished reading a comment that said “Please make more beginner-friendly patterns.” So, I did!
If you are new to crocheting then this crochet washcloth for beginners is for you!
How to Crochet a Washcloth
It is pretty easy to learn how to crochet a washcloth! Promise! 🙂 I’ve made quite a few over the years like the Ever so Easy Dishcloth!
All you will need to know for this particular pattern is ONE basic stitch! If you can single crochet then you definitely can make this wash cloth!
Let’s get crocheting!
The Yarn That’s Great to Make a Crochet Washcloth With!
To start the crochet washcloth I choose to work with cotton yarn which is a must (in my opinion) for all items that will be getting wet and used over again! I used Lily Sugar ‘N Cream Stripes Yarn in one of the prettiest colors that I’ve seen of cotton yarn called Natural!
When you work it up it creates a beautiful ombre flow from color to color which makes for a flawless project every time! 🙂 The fact that you can create a gorgeous, easy and useful item with your hands is pretty awesome!
