Crochet Dish Cloth Pattern

Step by step Pattern

Start with color A:

  1. Chain 3, then slip stitch the ends together to form a ring.
  2. Chain 1 (turning chain), then work one crochet stitch into the ring.
  3. Chain 1, then work two single crochet stitches into the ring.
  4. Chain 1, then work two single crochet stitches into the first chain space and two single crochet stitches into the next chain space. You'll now have four stitches.
  5. Continue increasing at the end of each row, crocheting two single crochet stitches into the last chain space of the previous row and the turning chain space.

Color changes:

  1. When it's time to switch colors, tie the new color onto the last stitch of the previous row and continue crocheting with the new color.

Corner shaping:

  1. When you have reached your desired width (around 30-35 stitches), it's time to start shaping the corner.
  2. Crochet two single crochet stitches into the corner stitch, then chain 3 and turn your work.
  3. Skip the first two stitches (the turning chain and the first stitch), then crochet single crochet stitches into the remaining stitches across the row.
  4. Chain 3 and turn your work again.
  5. Crochet single crochet stitches into the stitches across the row, crocheting two single crochet stitches into the corner stitch at the end.

Decreasing:

  1. Continue crocheting this way, working two single crochet stitches into the corner stitch at the beginning and end of each row.
  2. As you decrease, the sides of your work will start to slant inwards, forming a triangle.
  3. Continue decreasing until you have only three stitches left.
  4. Slip stitch all three stitches together to close the gap and fasten off.

Finishing touches:

  1. Weave in any loose ends using a tapestry needle and one of the yarn colors.
  2. You can also add a border around the edge of your dishcloth for an extra touch of flair. To do this, crochet a single crochet stitch around the entire perimeter of the dishcloth.

Tips:

  • You can adjust the size of your dishcloth by crocheting more or fewer rows before starting to decrease.
  • You can also experiment with different color combinations and stitch patterns to create your unique dishcloths.
  • For a sturdier dishcloth, use two strands of yarn held together throughout the project.
