• Crochet Hook: Size H/8 (5mm)
• Gauge: 14 single crochet (sc) and 16 rows = 4 inches

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Chain: Begin by making a slip knot and chaining 31 stitches. This will form the foundation of your washcloth.
2. Row 1: Starting from the second chain from the hook, single crochet (sc) in each chain across. You should have a total of 30 single crochets at the end of this row. Turn your work.
3. Row 2: Chain 1 (this does not count as a stitch). Single crochet in the first single crochet. Now, *skip the next single crochet, and in the next single crochet, make 5 double crochets (dc) to create a shell. Skip the next single crochet, and single crochet in the next single crochet; repeat from * across the row. Turn your work.
4. Row 3: Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet). In the first single crochet, make 2 double crochets. Now, *single crochet in the center double crochet of the next shell, then make 5 double crochets in the next single crochet; repeat from * across the row, ending with 3 double crochets in the last single crochet. Turn your work.
5. Row 4: Chain 1 and single crochet in the first double crochet. Now, *make 5 double crochets in the next single crochet, then single crochet in the center double crochet of the next shell; repeat from * across the row. Turn your work.
6. Repeat: Continue repeating Rows 3 and 4 until your piece measures approximately 10 inches in length, ensuring you end with Row 4.
7. Finishing: Once your washcloth reaches the desired size, fasten off your yarn by cutting it, leaving a tail of about 6 inches. Pull the tail through the last loop on your hook to secure it. Weave in any loose ends using a yarn needle for a neat finish.
