The Top Easy Crochet Washcloth Patterns to Make
If you are looking for an easy and free washcloth crochet pattern to make, then this collection of washcloth patterns is perfect for you to look through.
Each of these crochet washcloth patterns can be made in different colors, and some even have video tutorials to help out.
Each washcloth pattern has different skill levels, ranging from basic to easy, so be sure to look through the pattern you want to make to be certain it will work for you as a crocheter.
Materials Needed for Crochet Washcloth Patterns
While you would need many of these materials for any crochet project, crocheted washcloths sometimes require different types of materials depending on the pattern.
Take a look below at the different weights of yarn, hook sizes and other things that work best for washcloth designs.
- Stitch Markers: A stitch marker can be used to keep track of the rows you are working in most washcloth patterns. As a beginner crocheter, this can be helpful for making an even washcloth design.
- Crochet Hook: Most of the washcloth patterns below will let you know what size crochet hook to use for that particular washcloth, ranging from 4 mm to 6 mm sized hooks.
- Yarn: While almost any yarn can be used for washcloth patterns, the most commonly used is a cotton yarn. Cotton yarns can be easily washed and are durable. Each of the patterns will have the recommended yarn listed in the pattern.
- Yarn Needle: A yarn needle (or tapestry needle) will come in handy to sew in the yarn ends of the washcloth.
- Scissors: A good pair of scissors to cut yarn is not a necessity, but it is a nice option to have. I prefer small stork scissors as my yarn only cutting scissors.
- Measuring Tape: A tape measure will come in handy to determine gauge and if the washcloth is the correct size as the pattern indicates.
Easy Crochet Free Washcloth Crochet Patterns
Below you’ll find that I included some dishcloth patterns as well as washcloth patterns depending on the design since they can have double uses.
While I do have a few washcloth and dishcloth patterns of my own which are included below, I also found some from fellow designers that are pretty wonderful with details and technique.
I hope you enjoy this fun collection of free patterns and find a new favorite wash cloth to crochet.
