There is no better gift for housewarmings, Christmas, first dorm rooms, or to simply share with a neighbor than good, all-purpose crocheted dishcloths. There is no need to waste time browsing for fancy patterns (although there are some pretty darn cute ones) when a simple single crochet with front loop/back loop rows will fit the bill and look beautiful. These were made using leftover 100% teal/tan cotton thread, costing me less than a dollar each. Yard sales are a great place to find remnants of yarn for these projects.
Source: The round dishcloth is taken from an old pattern book I bought long, long ago and the regular one is my own work (although I'm sure many crocheters before me used the same or similar stitches).

Which pattern is that? I sure would love to make those.
These are fantastic. I crochet these too and wouldn't use anything else on my dishes. They clean so much better than the store bought ones.
