Ebbing Tides Washcloth / Dishcloth

"This crochet washcloth / dishcloth pattern will make a great gift idea - perfect for last minute gifts, housewarming gift ideas, birthdays teamed with favourite soaps, or even baby showers. It also has an easy to remember 2 row repeat. Cotton washcloths are ideal for babies because they are great for sensitive skin! It works up really quickly and uses around 70 yards of cotton yarn. The Ebbing Tides is an intermediate crochet washcloth pattern as it uses crossed treble crochets to create the effect with basic cabling techniques. There are no front post or back post stitches for this one and a full video tutorial is linked in the pattern. "
