A single crochet around the edges of the washcloth with 3 in each corner would really finish this off nicely!!
You could always add a border if you’d like 😊
@@AmandaCrochets The border is a great suggestion - I think borders always give a clean finished look

You are such a good teacher. I had to start one of these right away. Thank you for an easy pattern in crochet. I usually knit my dishcloths but now I think I will crochet them.
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed this pattern 😊
Yippee! One of my favorite stitches is in a dishcloth pattern of yours now. This made my day! Could you please make a Crochet 101 for the moss stitch? Keep these dishcloths patterns coming. This will be my next pattern.
You’re very welcome! I have a whole bunch of dishcloth ideas coming, so be in the lookout for them. I’ll add that crochet 101 to my list. Thanks!
Such a enjoyable, clear and concise instructional video to learn from. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Good job teaching me the moss stitch!
You are so welcome!
Very pretty pattern. Thanks for sharing, Amanda. 😁
Thanks for watching!
This is the best pattern for super straight and squared edges. I love it! On my fourth one now
Amazing! Glad you enjoy this pattern 🧶
Simple stitch but very pretty texture and pattern. Ty.
You’re welcome!
First time I've tried this stitch. I love it! Thank you, Amanda!❤
You are so welcome!
I'm so excited to see this stitch and tutorial! Thank you, Amanda. The Suzette stitch came out perfectly. Looking forward to listening to your tutorial making this right now! Very grateful for your time 🙏 🥲
You’re very welcome! Enjoy making this one 😊😊
A wonderfully clear tutorial! Thank you so much!
You're very welcome!
Thank you for the tutorial. I watch as many as I can even if going to make later.
Wonderful! Glad you enjoyed!
This is a gorgeous pattern 🥰 Thank you for sharing this ❤
You’re welcome 😊
As a self taught crocher the slip stich was at one time rather difficult for me. However; thank you so very much for showing is each move with yarn n hook at a slow pace, much better way to learn . Everyone else moves way to fast and that's just discouraging in a way.
Glad it was helpful! I try and go slow as I know a lot of beginners watch my channel.
A very nice tutorial! I am on my third row by the end of your video. I making a set of 6 or 8 dishcloths as part of a bridal shower present with each set of two in a different texture so this is a great addition. *💗💗Thanks for sharing!💗💗*
Sounds like a great present 😊
@@AmandaCrochets I did make a few of these...it's a great pattern. Thanks again!
@@TangibleTania you’re welcome!

Wonderful! 🧶
Is there different versions of moss stitch? as this is what I thought it was until I saw many others saying on CZcams moss stitch is totally different. After researching I believe yours is the Even Moss Stitch not Moss Stitch.
I’m sure there are multiple versions of the moss stitch. I know one version is using the single crochet and slip stitch. Maybe that’s the version you were thinking about?
Yes this video of yours moss stitch you do slip stitch & half double crochet and is the one I know now but found out it’s actually called Even moss stitch as the moss stitch is totally different.
Ps. Not sure why you wrote single crochet as you don’t do that in this video…
@@ElizabethRoypenguins I was referring to another version of moss stitch I’ve seen using single crochet and slip stitch.
@@AmandaCrochets Oh ok, yeah.
This is the first time in years that I’ve crocheted!! Thank you for refreshing my memory!! But…. Why am I short stitching…. Meaning I’m loosing a stitch with rows…. 32 is now…27
You’re welcome! I highly recommend using stitch markers for the first and last stitch of each row. That will help you keep track of your stitches so your ends are straight.
How do you use stitch markers?
Hey from Jackson, MS. I just sub. Thanks for the pattern.
Thanks for subscribing and watching :)
I came across your channel someone shared in a group and i am in LOVE! I bought a handful of the patterns on etsy. I love this stitch so easy. I have trouble sometimes at the corner and the last sl st and remembering not to Do a sc when it's supposed to be a sl st. Lol. Just habit I guess!
Wow, thank you for the support! I’m so happy you stumbled upon my channel. I hope you enjoy the many wonderful things to crochet 😊🧶
@AmandaCrochets I love your patterns, I have been sharing your link with alot of people. I see you used lionbrand 24/7 cotton for this. How would you compare it to Dishie.? I am not a fan of sugar and cream and find dishie to be a great quality. The 24/7, is so beautiful and silky but is it great for washcloths? Thank you!
@@hbogielski I really like dishie yarn a lot! I’m not a huge fan of the sugar and cream yarn either. My go to cotton yarn is the hobby lobby I love this cotton, but dishie is probably second. For the 24/7 cotton, I personally wasn’t a huge fan. It wasn’t bad to work with, but I just didn’t care for it. It felt a little too stiff to me, so I wouldn’t use it for a washcloth. That’s just my opinion though.
Thanks
You’re welcome!
Thankyou
Anytime!
Love this video. Are you crocheting in only the top stitch or top and back stitches together?
I’m working into the tops of the stitches 😊
What stitch should I end row with sl st or hdc? Thank you for your awesome tutorial
You will start and end each row with a slip stitch. Enjoy!
I wonder if this would be a good stirch for a graphghan
You could maybe try a small version of it and see if you like it. I've never tried this before, so it's hard to say for sure.
@@AmandaCrochets I'm always looking for stitches to try in color changes for graphs projects specifically front and back and not in the round. The wide single crochet is a nice thick stitch and great for both flips and in rounds.. thank you for your time
@@StephRenee812 you’re welcome!
Great tutorial. I just have one question about it. Is the hook going in the front loop or back loop? I have putting my hook in the back loop and sometimes it’s hard to get the hook in there. Just wondering if I’m doing something wrong.
Thanks for the help.
Thank you! You should be working in both loops of the stitch. Keeping your stitches a little more loose will help as well as sometimes the slip stitches can be tricky. Hope that helps!
@@AmandaCrochetsthe Half Double results in what looks like THREE loops (front, top, and back). Only two of them are the real ones though. The top one is obvious, so she’s asking which *other* one goes with it. The answer is the BACK one. So the top + back are the two loops that the hook goes in.
Hello , love this quick to make dishcloth , the size and design are great. Would you allow me permission to makes some to sell ? Thanks
Yes of course! Just give my pattern credit 😊
I use this stitch for my dishcloths. I thought it was called the popcorn stitch though
I’ve noticed crochet stitches have a lot of different names for the same stitch. It’s hard to keep up sometimes 😂
I'm trying to re learn to crochet simple items, no matter how hard I try I cannot get mine to square off, I somehow end up getting shorter rows?
It’s possible you’re missing stitches. I would recommend putting a stitch marker in the very first and very last stitch of your row. As this is a slip stitch, it’s easy to miss it. Hope that helps!
Hi Amanda, What is the difference between a moss stitch and crunch stitch? They look similar to me. Thx.
Hi Stephanie, they are very similar. One uses a single crochet and the other uses a half double crochet. Lots of stitches have different names, so it’s hard to keep track myself sometimes lol.
Thanks!
Hi I love the pattern, at the end of the row what stitch should you end with? Thanks
Hi I found out on your written pattern .
Wonderful!
Do you end each row with a sl st?
Yes 😊
I have a question and need some help please. How do I get my dishcloth to come out 8x8? What am I doing wrong?! Im still new with crochet and for the life of me I can not get them to come out the same length and width. Please let me know. Im still struggling with my tension and it frustrates me to think I may never get my tension right. Im a tight crocheter does it have to do with my dishcloth not coming out the same length and width each time?!
Your tension definitely plays a part. I suggest going up a hook size and trying to keep your stitches loose. That should help a little with getting your project the size you want. Over time, and with practice, your tension should ease up a bit. When I first learned how to crochet, my stitches were so tight that I couldn’t insert my hook. Just give it time, practice, and patience 😊
@@AmandaCrochets im not like new new but still learning different things. Tension is my culprit though. I have been trying so long with tension. Lol! Seems I will never get it right! I don’t want to give up crocheting bc I love it!
@@Value1lady you will get it right. I believe in you! Keep practicing 🧶
Any idea how much yarn one dishcloth takes?
Do you mean how many dishcloths can you get from one skein of yarn? If you use the same yarn I used, I would guess maybe 2-3 dishcloths depending on how big you make them. Hope that helps!
How do u count the rows in this stitch. Can i count the holes?
You can count the rows by the horizontal bar the stitch forms. For every bar, that will count as 2 rows. Hope that helps!
@@AmandaCrochets cool thanks yes it helps
@@Value1lady you're welcome!
Someone tell me what I’m missing. If I do an even number of chains, there is no way to start and end with a slip stitch. You need to have an odd number to do that. So am I the crazy one here?
You might be missing the slip stitches, which is why your work isn’t starting and ending with a slip stitch. I suggest going up a hook size for the chain and first row if you’re having difficulties. Hopefully that helps 😊
Is this an extended moss stitch?
Not that I’m aware of.
Nah, it’s just mislabeled. It should’ve been labeled “EVEN Moss” stitch. The one you’re thinking of (the regular moss stitch) is also known as the Linen stitch. Which is probably why this one seemed “extended” to you.
Is it soft enough for a face cloth?
This yarn is a little too stiff for a face cloth, at least in my opinion.
@@AmandaCrochets thanks!
I am having trouble seeing where you place the crochet hook, it gets a bit blurry and you go a little fast, kind of frustrating
I’m sorry about that! I try and keep my pace slow, so I’ll keep that in mind for future video tutorials. I’m not the best with my camera work, but always looking to improve. Thanks for watching!
isnt the moss stitch, sc, ch1, sk1, sc, cont ... then sc into ch1 sp, ch1, sc into next ch1 sp, cont ...
ahhh, i see this stitch is actually called Even Moss Stitch! the more ya know~
Lol it’s ok. I know with crochet it can be a little confusing at times as the same stitches may have different names.
@@tuxedokazooieCorrect. The one you described is the regular Moss stitch, also known as the Linen stitch. The one in this video is actually the EVEN Moss stitch.
isn't this also known as the crunch stitch ???
It’s possible!
I have been crocheting for about 40 years and this isn't like any Moss stitch that I've ever seen. I learned it as sc skip a ch... all the way across on the first row and the sc in each chain space the rest of the rows. You can also use hdc instead of sc. I don't want to offend you but I also don't want people to learn the wrong stitch names. It would be very confusing. Maybe you learned it differently so maybe you can search for the moss stitch and see what I mean. It does make a lovely dish cloth. ✌🏻😻🧶
The stitch you’re describing sounds like the linen stitch. I know with crochet there are multiple names for the same stitch, which can get a little confusing. I’ve seen this stitch done both the way you mentioned and the way I show in this video 😊
✌️✌️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks!
Instead of a slip stitch I do a single crochet
Awesome!
