I love crocheting dish / wash cloths. Not only are they mindless and keep my hands busy but they make great gifts if I am not in need of a facecloth for myself.
- Cluster Stitch:
- Cluster: Insert hook into the ch 1 space, pull up a loop. Yarn over, insert hook into same ch 1 space, pull up a loop. There will be four loops on your hook. Pull through all 4 loops on your hook.
- Pattern:
- Chain 31.
- Row 1: cluster in the 3rd ch from hook. *ch 1, skip a stitch, cluster in the next
stitch* across ending with a cluster in the last chain. Ch 2, turn. - Row 2: *cluster, ch 1* in each ch 1 space across. Work your final cluster around the ch 2 at the end of the row (insert your hook under the ch 2). Ch 2, turn.
- Repeat row 2 till as long as you wish.
- Final row: *cluster, ch 1* in each ch 1 space across. Work your final cluster around the ch 2 at the end of the row (insert your hook under the ch 2). Ch 1, turn.
- Continue to the border.
- Border Pattern:
- Round 1: sc in each stitch around the blanket. Work sc, ch 2, sc in each corner stitch.
- Cut yarn and weave ends.
