#130 Lady Bug Crochet Dishcloth. Once again Kathleen Stuart has created a charming crochet dishcloth for all of us to enjoy. Kathleen wrote: “With the idea of better weather approaching, I came up with the idea of a cute ladybug. The ladybug dishcloth is a quick circular dishcloth made with half double crochet and popcorn stitches.
I used surface crochet to create the center line for the bug. This dishcloth will be fun to use as the weather gets warmer and we actually get to see some of the real ladybugs.
