After watching and attempting 4 or 5 different tutorials on this technique - yours is the only one that worked! Thanks!
That's awesome. Glad I could help.
Bless you for the low volume background music. If the music is loud I usually just skip over a tutorial. Also, you have a pleasant voice. I agree that stitch counts help us newbies.
I love this pattern. Made one tonight. Will make many more. The instructions were easy to follow. Thank you!
Hands down my favorite crochet washcloth pattern! These are extremely similar to the knit ones! Not a big fan of knitting but preferred knitted washcloths because my crocheted ones where always really stiff and scratchy but these ones are the exact opposite! thank you!
Me too. It feels like a sponge.
Use a bigger hook!
Just when I thought I had already found my favorite dishcloth pattern, I discover this. Did a swatch and I LOVE IT! Definitely my new favorite AND it’s simple - thank you!
You have a great soothing voice.It made it that much easier to quickly learn how to crochet these washcloth
First crochet tutorial I've found that holds the yarn & hook like I do! Can't wait to try it!
I was thinking the same thing 😀
It is very kind of you to provide this tutorial. I was looking for a new-to-me crochet washcloth pattern and I think this will do nicely.
Once l learned about crocheting wash cloths, I have made a hundred or so. This is the first time I have see this pattern. It is wonderful. I like the look and the texture You gave easy to follow instructions, This will be my new wash cloth for gifts this year. I got tired of making circles in a square cloths. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful pattern.
This is a really nice pattern, so soft will definitely make more - thank you.
Love this! Im a crocheter that learned to knit just because of the texture knitted washcloths have.... honestly I learned one pattern and nothing else 😂 Now, though, I can put a hook back in my "washrag bag"! ❤️
This very was very helpful on understanding how to increase and decrease.
Love the throwing technique, very unique way to crochet.
It’s definitely not unique. It is usually a beginner who does this until they realise it is such a waste of time. The yarn can be just picked up with the hook from the forefinger. No need for that annoying throwing. 🙄
iv'e tried many different washcloth patterns, and so far this one is the best and my favorite.
I love this pattern also! Your soothing voice telling us exactly what to do to create this lovely washcloth! Thank you for all you do! Have a blessed and beautiful day! Happy hooking! 😁✌🏻🙏🏼🇺🇸🧶
Love it, thank you for the tutorial . I’m new to crochet and it took me a couple tries to get it right, I kept missing the very last stitch. Love the texture and look 🥰
Love it! I used a variegated yarn and it turned out great. It's so much more interesting with the diagonal stripe and seems like it would be great for cleaning dishes or exfoliating skin in the shower. Thank you so much! I just subscribed so I'm looking forward to seeing more from your channel.
I made 2 loved them and now I'm back to complete my set...thanks!
Love this pattern!
Easy to follow instructions!
Thank you!
Thank you for this tutorial.
Love the look of this pattern a definitely gonna try this tomorrow. Thanks for sharing 🪡🧶

Love this tutorial; can’t wait for more crochet tutorials
Thank you for sharing. Love this pattern! Have a great day!
No problem, glad you enjoyed.
love the texture and its pretty easy for beginners!!!
This pattern is so easy and beautiful. Thank-you SO much for making this video. I have a crochet washcloth book and the patterns are too complicated to be fun (for me). I love yours.
This is the most interesting design/pattern I’ve ever seen!!! Definitely gotta try this & I suppose you can just start decreasing or increase as much as you want based upon the size you want
So cool!!! Great color too! Thanks
I love this and I can't wait to try it! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing! Turned out great!
Love this pattern, I plan on making a bunch for the holidays for gifts, I love the set of 3 you show in the beginning of the video 😀

Thank you for that really simple, but very pretty pattern The washcloth came out great. I love it. ♥♥♥
Thanks for this! It’s a beautiful and quick project and your instructions are lovely.
Thank you for sharing this pattern. Very easy to follow. Just made my first washcloth, I’m really in love 😍 with design!!
This si a beautiful pattern. Thank you for sharing
So easy with your tutorial! Looking forward to make many of these 😀
Just ordered some cotton skeins and I plan on making a few wash cloths for my mother in law for her birthday 🙂 I'm so excited!
Stitch count per row would help us newbies to understand when/where to stop on each row. I found my rows way off because I was grabbing that last 'hidden' stitch at each end. Thankfully, I recognized what was happening.
did u get an answer to the stitch count per row? curious also
@@nancybrowning3380 No, I never did. I'm sorry.
@@susieq9849 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18, etc. I go to 40 then start the decrease,s, you should always have an even number of stitches in each row. I found if I put a stitch marker in last stitch of each row, I use a safety pin. when u get to the end of a row and single crochet 2 in it, chain one, turn your work, you put 2 single crochet in that same stitch as the chain 1. hope this helps
@@nancybrowning3380 thanks for your help and explanation. i always use a stitch marker.
@@nancybrowning3380 the decrease is what kept throwing me off, but I get it now; after many frustrating tries. ;-)
Thanks so much for this tutorial!
Love this pattern
I like that stitch. Nice instructions. Thanks
Thank you for this video. I'm so happy! I made this washcloth and it's quick and simple. I used I Love this Cotton. Color = 230 wood.
I really like this pattern, and it’s so simple!
I also like how you ended the last corner. I’ve never seen that before. Very nice!
Thank you!
Iove it looks beautiful tank you for sharing
Yes, honestly is. Thank you dearly!
Thank you. Love the stitch.
What does the finished dishcloth measure? I love this pattern 🙂
Great diagonal pattern. I tried one in Ravelry but yours is better starting with a 2 chain not 4. Thank you!!!
Love this
i made one so far. but see a lot more coming . thank you
I love this pattern, but since I didn't want such a big one, I had trouble making a smaller one even. I had to rip it out several times. Never gave up, though. A stitch count is what ended up helping me.
Once you use crochet or knitted washclothes, you'll never go back... Live this pattern.
I agree, and these ones feel so thick. I also like to use them as a coaster to set my french press on.
Love it!
I love this pattern when using the Lily Sugar N Cream Scrub Off Yarn, which can be a bit fiddlely if the pattern is too complex. At 8:18 minutes at the first decrease you do not mention the single crochet stitch after the decrease before you turn the work. Going frame by frame I could see you do the SC before turning the corner. I wonder if others got confused there too? Thanks
Thank you so much for sharing
Thank you so very much for sharing.
I absolutely love these washcloths!! Thanks so much!!!
Never have seen this pattern in crochet.
I knit one like it but is slightly different.
Is there a printed pattern for this? Very pretty!
You did a really good job of explaining how to do this... i have the paper pattern, but im having a hard time figuring it out. you really helped me so thank you! I went to hit thumbs up at the end of the video and accidentally hit the down thumb...I’m really sorry. I don’t see anyway to take it back. I did give a thumbs up, and subscribed to your channel.
It is pretty
Beautiful pattern! Thank you so much. ❤️ And I want to tell you how thrilled and so surprised that you used the words “ lie flat” and “lying flat”. This is the only time I have EVER heard an American using the correct words. Most Americans and now, unfortunately Australians , by copying, are using the words LAY and LAYING. Which are totally incorrect. LAY means to place or put something. LIE in this context means to assume a horizontal or resting position. We LIE down on our bed. Or we LAY a book on a table. Thanks so much for not making me cringe🥴as I do very often with the misuse of the word LAY. 😘
Thank you for this video ❤️
This is lovely thank you 😀
Thank you!
Such a perfectly shaped washcloth! Your crocheting is so uniform and beautiful!😊
Thank you!!
I like this one too
When u chain 1 at the end of each row, & turn your work, are you going back into the same stitch for increase,s and decreases? I should have an even number of stitches in each row, correct? Not odd number of stitches.
Thank you!
I want to know what Im duing wrong,my wash cloth came aut like a diamont shape
Love this pattern can this stitch be used to make a matching hand towel as well and how would you go about doing so?
Love the washcloths pattern.
My problem is it stretches alot
How do i stop it from stretching.
Why is mine coming out skinny? My hook is a little smaller than recommended-would that have something to do with it?
When you go back across the row and get to where you have 2 sc in the last stitch, do you put one in the first then 2 in the 2nd from the row below? Or is that treated like one stitch?
Are you a knitter? The way you wrap the yarn around the hook reminds me of a knitter. I never saw a crocheter crochet as you. Thank you for the video!
I took this pattern and made it bigger for a lap blanket.
That's awesome!
Oooo! Good idea! What yarn did you use for the blanket?
I really enjoyed your pattern and would like to know if you can do this stitch not diagonal. I tried but wasn't sure how to work the ends. thank you
How do you get the well, corners on the sides? I get a flat edge for 2 rows despite going increase, decrease, decrease. It looks like \_/ instead of \/. What am I doing wrong?
I am not sure what happened if you followed the directions with a last row of increase, then doing decrease rows. Did you finish the washcloth with a border of sc's, putting 3 sc in each corner stitch and see how it looks at the end? The 3 stitches in the corners will help to define the corner and make sure it doesn't roll-up. I hope that helps.
Hi love your washcloth, do you have a written pattern.
Hi, thank you for sharing this pattern. How many yards is needed for this , please? Thank you 🙂
Hello, a while later and I am watching your video. The finished product turned out beautiful but my finished product looks more like a Dimond shape and not a square. Do you know what may have went wrong?
Same happened to me I've tried 3 times... 😭
I don’t know what I’m missing but my triangle is not a 90°! What am I doing wrong!
Not sure. Make sure you start your new row in the right spot. Have you counted out your stitches to make sure you have the right amount in each row?
Good pattern and explanation for a newbie here. I do have one area of confusion. In creating the border, as you reach the last corner, near where you started, are there not three SC at that corner as done in the other three corners? If so, were they done at the beginning of the border? Or, were they added after the last edge? If so, is the finish stitch part of the corner and therefore there are only 2 SC in the final corner? I'm not sure I'm expressing this well at all. Hopefully my clear confusion or lack of crochet experience gives you enough info you can clarify for how to wrap up my project. Thank you!
Love this pattern!

Never thought of crocheting like this, thanks for the video! Was wondering if there is a way to make it rectangular :)
So, is your washcloth more diagonal too? From the corner you start, is the angler more or less than 90 degrees? I get over 90 degrees. Can’t figure out what I am doing wrong.
@@shepeewee that happened to me, too. Did you ever figure it out?
Square isn't quite 🤔 square?
Could be you missed an increase or a decrease somewhere along the way.
Rectangular shape.
If you're familiar with making a C2C blanket, it's the same concept.
Once the desired width is attained begin decreasing (sc2tog) at that corner while continuing to increase (grow the length) by placing 2sc in the last stitch at the opposite corner.
The same holds true for length. Once you've attained the desired length begin decreasing (sc2tog) at that corner as well.
Hope this helps.🤗
First time it's my first time using peaches and cream I am looking for show me how to use it thank you
What am I doing wrong? It went great until the decreases. Then when I finished it wasn't even a diamond, let alone a square 🤷♀️ I did a 2 in 1 decrease at the beginning and end of every row with all singles in between and a turn at the end without a chain 1.
While you need some texture in a facecloth, what smoother tight stitch could I use for someone with delicate skin? I assume a cotton would be ideal but maybe going down to #3 weight would be better for soft skin???
Love this pattern. Can you use it for a body washcloth?
Definitely!
How do I make this smaller....like 12inch square?
In this example the maker chose to stop "increasing" at 25 rows which determined the overall size of her square dishcloth.
Make your square dishcloth larger or smaller by crocheting more or less "increase" rows.
Hope this helps 🤗.
I know this video is very old, but I am fairly new to crocheting. I have started a few blankets over the years and gave up. I am not working on a zig zag style blanket and decided to start washcloths too. Well, I found this video and liked the diagonal idea. I started off too loose and then kept a pretty tight (but even) tension along the cloth. My increases and decreases turned out well. My problem was the border.....it was awful trying to figure out where to place the single crochet. Also, since I started out loose my initial corner was odd and pointy compared to the rest of the corners. I wound up pulling the entire washcloth out and will try again. Any tips for that beginning corner?
Can I know the name of that needle,can I know why it's bending in the corner wen I do my dishcloth pattern,thanks for explaining in detail
I love this pattern, I keep having an issue of it not matching once I start the decrease, I am still doing a chain 1 at the end of every row for decrease turning and working into 1st two stitches from the needle is this right? I have unraveled a million times lol!
me too!
I'm having the same problem I have frogged the whole thing twice. It's very wonky. Looks more like a kite🪁
Mine too .. I've attempted many times cause I love the look of the pattern so much
nice
help i made 3 dishtowels using this technique and i haven't stopped XD XD XD
My decrease never comes out right I have tried about 5 times now and my shape is always off
How can I get the written pattern?
Hi Jenna, I was just wondering if this stitch pattern would work for an acrylic small throw or blanket? Would just continue increasing to the desired length. Maybe do a double or half double crochet stitch. I just love the whole design. Any thoughts?
Yeah it would work. You would have a square blanket if you did an increase of both sides. If you wanted a rectangle, you'd have to figure out the increases. But it would be beautiful. Even just straight, with the ripples would be very pretty on a blanket.
@@TheUpNorthHome Great, will have to work that out. I've already made two dish towels haha. My plan is to gift them to my mother in law for her birthday in a nice little hamper arrangement with lotions, etc. 🙂
Beautiful!! I’m definitely giving this a try... 🤗
So u don't chain one at the beginning 💭
I'm ending up with 3 stitches in one of my final row decreases. Soooo... 2together and one single??
