Basketweave Crochet Dishcloth

"I love learning new stitches and I’ve been eyeing the basketweave crochet stitch for a while. Dishcloths are such a fun way to learn new stitches. I love having a collection of dishcloths for wiping baby and toddler hands after meals. Here’s the latest addition to that collection!"

NotesEven though this is simply a dishcloth, I do recommend blocking your work because this squishy stitch really warps the fabric. The blog post includes photos before and after blocking so you can see the difference!
