Hi friends,
Crochet dishcloths are a great way to learn and practice new stitches. They also make great little “just thinking of you” gifts. The floret stitch is an easy 2 row pattern repeat that’s great for beginners.

I stitched up my dishcloths using I Love This Cotton Yarn in Turquoise and Khaki with an H/5mm crochet hook. The super easy pattern is below along with free PDFs – one with photos and one without – if you’d like to easily print it.

Don’t forget that because the dishcloths are made with cotton yarn, they also make great spa cloths!😊
I think the crochet floret stitch would also make a beautiful blanket or scarf. Make your starting chain in multiples of 2 plus 2 to start and crochet as many rows as you’d like. You can also use any yarn you’d like – just adjust your hook size to the yarn you choose.
