Houndstooth Crocheted Dishcloth

"The Houndstooth Crocheted Dishcloth is a nicely textured dishcloth with visual appeal. For a less dramatic pattern, choose two yarns in similar shades, or a multi-colored yarn. For the high contrast pattern of traditional houndstooth, choose solid colors with greater contrast. This dishcloth is the perfect weight for washing dishes, not too thick but with closely spaced stitches. It is the perfect pattern to dress up your kitchen while practical enough to use every day. It can be crocheted in about an hour. "
