Hi, and welcome to day three of my Spring Cleaning Free crochet pattern blitz! Today I’d like to introduce you to the Beaded Washcloth.
Who doesn’t love a Washcloth with lots of great texture! These ones are pretty, a great size, ready and waiting to be made up for your own home, as a gift or for craft fairs and sales.
This Cloth is made out of a worsted weight crochet cotton and is formed using a couple of great textured stitches. The name come from one of the stitches used – the crochet bead stitch.
Make some up for yourself, and some for a friend. It might just become one of your new favourites!
