Easy Washcloth Pattern

The Whistler Washcloth gives a modern look based on a classic style. The two-tone colours remind me of the cloths my grandmother always had, but we’ll upgrade the look with modern colours and a pop of texture.

The pattern is worked back and forth in rows using mainly Half Double Crochet. The textured row, yep, only one row on each end; is made with Front Post Treble Crochet and Front Post Treble Crochet 2 together.

I chose to use *WeCrochet’s *Dishie yarn in Swan, Mint, and Silver. I love the durability and soft texture of Dishie, and they have amazing colours!
