How to make the ribbed crochet dishcloth free pattern

February 12, 2022

In the ribbed series this stitch is the vertical one-sided post stitch ribbing. It works nicely for dishcloths because the extra texture helps with scrubbing.

The pattern is designed with the border built in so there is no fussing around with working in the round once the piece is done. How many of you have a deep dislike for working in the first row down the side where the rows are a little cattywampus?

I designed project trackers! This is the large print version for tired eyes. So much easier than using apps, scraps of paper or a plain notebook.

Three project sizes, a handy ruler and hook guide inside the cover and plenty of rooms for notes in each pattern.

Buy it here.

Regular size print here.

I have had bad eyesight since age 18 so large print is a godsend when you can’t see apps and dark yarn, let alone going from one to the other on a crochet-a-thon during a netflix binge.

Use cotton yarn, category 4 for this. I used Premier just cotton yarn in cream. See my review of dollar tree yarn here. You can work this longer to make a kitchen towel, it would be so pretty hanging on a hook in your kitchen or as a makeshift light hot pad. I have several kitchen towels and cotton dishrags I love using them on a daily basis.

If you’re using one of my project trackers, select a page in the small projects section.
