Cotton Crochet Dishcloths or Washcloths

Since discovering crochet dishcloths, I’ve made (and sold) LOTS of them. They’re fabulous for scrubbing dishes, pots, pans and counter tops. Yet, they are gentle enough to be used in the bath tub or to wash your face with. How versatile can you get? These things are awesome. The more I’ve sold, the more I’ve learned just how many ladies use them.

Now that I’ve discovered a cotton blend of yarn, I’m even more sold on them. Dishcloths or washcloths made with the blended yarn are even softer than those made with 100% cotton, yet they are just as effective in their scrubbing power. Better yet, they hold their color much better than the all-cotton yarn.

With all that being said, I’ve opened a new line of crochet dishcloths or washcloths and they’re available on my website at HandmadeInIowa.com. They’re made from the cotton yarn that is soft, flexible, holds its color well, is gentle on skin, yet scrubs really well. The array of colors will grow from here, but so far, the following is what’s available to date.

This set of four crochet dishcloths (#5583) consists of one each of forest green, sage, yellow, and cream. They’re a pretty combo that would look great in your kitchen if green is your kitchen color of choice.

 

 

This next set of four crochet dishcloths (#5576) has one each of lavender, pastel blue, pastel peach and yellow. The colors are “soft” and remind me of Easter!

 

 

This third set of four crochet dishcloths (#5569) has one each of orange, beige, cranberry, and delft blue. The colors are bright and bold and would brighten ANY kitchen!

 

 

This fourth set of four crochet dishcloths (#5552) has one each of cornflower blue, passion fruit, pastel pink and fuchsia. Ladies who love pinks and associated colors would love this set. They’re bright and pretty!

 

More sets are coming, as I can make them! They would make great practical gifts any time of year. Looking for stocking stuffers for Christmas? These would be a welcomed gift!
