This dishcloth is crocheted just like the much loved Grandma's Favorite knitted dishcloth! You simply add stitches on each row until you reach 40 stitches, then you start decreasing stitches to the last row. Working into the back loop creates a nice ribbed appearance, as well as a more stretchy fabric. The ribbing is also great for scrubbing! What color is YOUR favorite?
