Here is a new "granny round" crochet dishcloth pattern. I call it granny round because the stitches are so like the granny squares, but, obviously, the dishcloth is round in shape. It just makes for a change from a square dishcloth. I made this set to go with the yellow celery rose printed apron and yellow rose printed dishtowels. The pattern works up pretty quick. I hope you enjoy it!

ReplyDeleteI need to learn to crochet! I am finding knitting so hard though.
I saw a really pretty pattern in an old magazine for placements that were sunflowers with brown centres and lovely yellow petals.
So hard to choose between hobbies!
These are really, really cute!!!...full of vintage cuteness :) :) I'm going to try making up some of these!!! I love Granny Squares but I've always had trouble with the start, because I can't seem to make it look invisible!!! Do you have any tips? Love and hugs from the ocean shores of California, Heather :)
ReplyDeletep.s. Thanks for sharing the pattern :) :) :)
That is beautiful! I always love to look at your sets of beautifulness for the hopechest and as gifts!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the pattern. I'm making this right now! Wish I had the same color you used, but instead I'm using Bright Orange. It's still quite cute.
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you, this is exactly what I was looking for! I'm making baby washcloths, and I had the perfect pink cotton yarn and I knew what I wanted, but I'm pretty new at crochet so I didn't feel comfortable working without a good pattern. It turned out EXACTLY how I had pictured it in my head! So cute!
ReplyDeleteThese are so easy and cute! :) Thank you! I've always loved the idea of a hope chest. Your blog makes me happy :) I like making stuff I know I will use when I get married.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the lovely pattern....I've crocheted up two cloths so far!
ReplyDeleteCheers.....Jane.
These are so cute! I would like to make them however my skill level is not good enough that I can't just follow a pattern. I was wondering if you would be willing to add pictures with the directions? I have been able to make some of your other thing thanks to the pictures! And Thanks too you!Thanks Karla
ReplyDeleteCould you put pictres? That would be so helpful. I am a beginner and I can't always follow a pattern by reading it.Thanks Karla
ReplyDeleteMade mine in hues of white, blue and yellow. Matches perfect with my kitchen theme. Great pattern. This pattern is going in my GO TO PATTERN stash. Have you ever made this bigger, say for a table topper for a small round kitchen table?
