Make this Simple SPA Washcloth in Pretty Colors
Afternoon Crochet Project
If you are a beginner at crochet, this might take an afternoon to crochet. I can make this washcloth in just over an hour; a bit longer to weave in the two ends. Sometimes I make a bunch and weave in the ends all at once. They are great to use yourself and give as a gift.
Directions: Simple SPA Washcloth
Size:
The size of the washcloth is approximately 6 1/2 X 6 1/2 inches long and wide. If you want to change the size of the washcloth, increase or decrease the pattern by 2 or change the number of rows you crochet.
Materials:
Approximately 60 yards of Cotton yarn. I used a worsted 4-ply yarn in a variety of colors. Each small skein yielded 2 washcloths and a few face scrubbies.
Size H Crochet Hook
Yarn Needle
Scissors
If you are new to crochet, here is a nice crochet set to start out with that includes the crochet hooks, yarn needle, and scissors.
Abbreviations:
CH = Chain
HDC = Half Double Crochet
SK = Skip
ST = Stitch
Directions:
Foundational Row: CH 26
Row 1: HDC in the 3rd ST. CH 1, SK 1. [HDC, CH 1, SK 1] repeat between the [ ] ending row with HDC in the last 2 ST.

I love this pattern. Most washcloth patterns are too heavy and bulky. This pattern is quick, easy and makes the perfect wash cloth.

Thank you. I love it for that reason too. I have made some in the past that were too bulky. They were seldom used. We use these all the time. Enjoy making them.
