These are great for craft shows too! Image your display table with rolled flower washcloths and dishcloths to entice customers and they will buy all of them to achieve the same look at home.
These little gems work up fast, I was able to make them in just three hours each.

Adding a border to your crochet washcloth
Once you finish your washcloth body, it will measure nearly 8″ and the border will bring it up to a full 8″ square, a standard size.
In the pattern, I have step-by-step photo instructions to add the seashore border. It is easier than it looks, also a video tutorial to help you along.
