Hi friends,

The Crochet Christmas Grit Stitch Dishcloth works up so quickly! A set in red, green, and white makes a fun hostess gift or they also make great stocking stuffers. ♥️💚🤍

I used I Love This Cotton yarn in Red, Bright Green, and White with an H/5mm crochet hook to stitch up my dishcloths. You can find the pattern below along with links to free PDFs – one with photos and one without – if you’d like to easily print it.

For gifting, I fold up my Crochet Christmas Grit Stitch Dishcloths and add a simple label wrap around them. I’ve created a free PDF for the label wrap and you can find it at the link below.

Of course, these dishcloths can be made in any color – they’re not only for Christmas giving. 😉
