Felted Button - Colorful Crochet Patterns: Mama's Wash Cloths

Felted Button - Colorful Crochet Patterns: Mama's Wash Cloths
My sweet mom loves when I make her wash cloths and dish cloths. Someone asked me why crocheted wash cloths are so great. And although I love the possible textures, and the ease of wash and functional use, I think the thing I like about them most is that they are HANDMADE!! (right, Fauna?) So I came up with this simple little textured cloth that works up without much brain energy but can be made in any colors or any size. Best part... ...I'm sharing the free pattern here. These were completed with some awesome color changes and without the border. The litttle wiggles of the stitch pattern are not so obvious in a single color but really "shine" when worked in a contrasting color. There are so many options with this one! If you haven't stayed in the "Button Loop" you can follow me around in my colorful crazy crocheting fun... | On the Board | -- God looks at us in all our smallness and says, "Yes, those things you do, those things you think are small--they matter.

Linen Stitch Dishcloth By Dedri Uys I know this stitch as the Linen Stitch, but have also seen it called the Moss Stitch (although the Moss stitch as I know it is slightly different). You might know it by a different name, and if you do, please let me know. It is one of the simplest stitch patterns to master and yields a pretty, woven, dense fabric. The reason it is so simple is that you don’t even have to know how to work into the loops of the single crochet stitches, because you will be working into the ch-1 spaces between single crochet stitches instead. This stitch is excellent for working up a quick and easy chunky baby blanket and it is so much prettier than just regular old single crochet stitches. You can use any yarn/hook combination your heart desires. Using a single strand of light worsted weight (double knit) and a 1 cm crochet hook, for example, will yield a very “holey”, loose blanket (you can see this post about my Rainbow Blanket if you want to see what I’m talking about. This tutorial includes: Linen Stitch

Tunisian Crochet Washcloths | My Poppet Makes Hi it’s Michelle here again, this time with a tutorial for a Tunisian Crochet Wash Cloth. Tunisian crochet is a deceptively easy technique that is a little bit crochet, a little bit knitting and looks like weaving. The resulting fabric is quite thick and spongy making it a perfect choice for wash or dishcloths, potholders, cushions and more. It’s also quite lovely for scarves if you use a fine yarn. You will need: • Worsted weight cotton in 2 coordinating colours • 6mm Tunisian hook (also known as Tricot or Afghan hook) • 4 mm crochet hook A word about hooks: Tunisian hooks come in several different styles: Rigid, interchangeable extension and fixed extension. How to: Abbreviations:Ch – Chainsc – single crochet (US terms)Sk – SkipYo – Yarn overSl St – Slip StitchSts – StitchesTSS – Tunisian Simple Stitch Tunisian Crochet Lesson Note: Each row in Tunisian crochet takes two steps; the forward pass and the return pass. Foundation row Make a chain as you normally would to length required. Related
