Materials Needed
- Yarn: 100% cotton, worsted weight
- Hook: G/4.0mm crochet hook
- Gauge: 14 half double crochet (hdc) and 10 rows = 4 inches
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start with a Slip Knot: Begin by making a slip knot on your crochet hook. This will be the starting point for your chain.
- Chain 31: Yarn over and pull through to create a chain of 31 stitches. This will form the foundation of your dishcloth.
- Row 1:
- In the 2nd chain from the hook, yarn over and pull through, then yarn over again and pull through all three loops on the hook to complete your first half double crochet (hdc).
- Continue to hdc in each chain across until you reach the end of the row. You should have a total of 30 hdc stitches.
- Row 2:
- Chain 1 and turn your work to start the next row.
- For this row, you will hdc in the back loop only of each stitch across. This creates a textured ribbed effect.
- Complete this row with 30 hdc stitches.
- Repeat Row 2: Continue repeating Row 2 until your dishcloth measures approximately 8 inches square. This will give it a nice thickness and texture.
- Finish Up: Once you reach the desired size, fasten off your yarn by cutting it, leaving a long tail. Pull the tail through the last loop on your hook to secure it.
- Weave in Ends: Use a yarn needle to weave in any loose ends, ensuring a clean finish for your dishcloth.
Congratulations! You have now created your very own Ocean Breeze Half Double Crochet Dishcloth. Enjoy using it in your kitchen or gifting it to a friend!
