Crochet Lemon Peel Stitch Dishcloth

- This video shows you how to make my go-to washcloth pattern using the lemon peel crochet stitch from start to finish. I would classify this as a beginner-friendly pattern, as it uses no fancy stitches, just chains, single and double crochet. The fanciest part is the color change, which I show you several times, as well as a couple other tricks I like to use for the slip knot (courtesy of Jill @gumleaf_crochet on IG), adding a border, and weaving in your tails as you work.
Yarn: Yarnspirations Lily's Sugar 'n Cream in Ecru (Main Color/Color A) and Overcast (Contrast Color/Color B)
Hook: 6mm / J hook
Written Instructions:
Begin with Color A
Ch 32
R1: dc in 3rd ch, sc next, repeat across (15 dc, 15 sc)
R2: Ch2, turn, *dc, sc next, repeat from * across (15 dc, 15 sc)
R3: Repeat R2
Switch to Color B
R4: Repeat R2
Switch to Color A
R5-7: Repeat R2
Switch to Color B
R8: Repeat R2
Switch to Color A
R9-24: Repeat R5-8 found more times, with indicated color changes, making that last switch back to Color A for last 3 rows.
R25-27: Repeat R2
Do not tie off, begin border
Border:
Single crochet evenly around all edges
Tie off, weave in ends.

New to your channel. I am 74 & really like the way you teach your pattern to all of us that is just learning new patterns. I am making lots of dishcloths & scrubbies to donate to donate to our local womens shelter.

I enjoy your teaching style...thank you!
I’m so glad! Thank you!
Pattern is lovely and the video tutorial is well-done. I do hate the way peaches and cream splits while working. I tried exactly one project using it and threw out the yarn afterwards because it was so hard to work with. I appreciate that it is a tough, no-nonsense cotton yarn that is economically priced, I just prefer to spend a little more and have a yarn that is more friendly to my hands and my patience :)
I totally get that! It can be a bit of an arm workout too! Softer cottons work just as well, like ILT Cotton, which is one of my faves!
Great tip on weaving the end of the contrast color on the return row! Weaving in tails is so annoying. Very pretty stitch.
In lieu of a magic wand making those tails disappear, it’s the next best thing 😄
Beautiful pattern. Thank you for easy to follow tutorial. 🌹
I’m so glad you enjoyed it ♥️
Hello 👋. Very pretty.thanks for sharing this with us.

Great explanation! Thank you

Love love love it x
I’m so glad!
I love that it’s called Lemon Peel Stitch ☕️🧶💕
Me too, it’s so fitting isn’t it?!
I find the cotton speckled yarn in cotton candy colorway looks so cute with this stitch and no ends to weave in but the start and end
Yes! I bet it looks fantastic!
Thank you! Love this pattern!! ❤️🧶
I’m so glad!♥️
White background, white yarn, silver hook.....so hard for some to see.
Thank you for pointing that out, I’ll keep that in mind for future tutorials
Yes yes it's hard to see ur work because the background table is white n the yarn is white also..other wise great tutorial ❤
Awesome
🥰
Love the color combinations but I like to use the verigagit color yarn less color changes same result
You can absolutely do that too! It just depends on what look you’re going for and what you want to do. 🥰
Thank you for explaining everything so explicitly it's a really good video . How do you block at the end since I've never heard of that lol
I’m glad you found it helpful! Blocking is wetting a piece down and pinning it into shape to let it dry. If I’m using acrylic yarn, I steam it, and if I’m using natural fiber (like cotton) then I spray with water. I hope that helps!
I will be honest and tell you that I don’t block my washcloths, since they’re a more utilitarian piece. So don’t feel like you have to :)
This looks like a wonderful stitch, I've tried it before but didn't know the name. I had trouble figuring out which one was the double stitch and the single stitch, I would appreciate any help you could give me.
The texture comes from bending the double crochet to the level of the sing crochets next to it, so when you’re looking at it, the bumpy part is the double crochet and the parts between bumps are single crochet. I hope this helps!
Not sing crochets…single crochets, sorry for the typo!
@@HooksBooksWanderlust okay thanks 😊
Would this stitch work to make reusable makeup remover pads? Love the look. Thanks for sharing
Yes, if you make small squares instead of rounds! 😄
🌷🌷🤗🤗💚💚
♥️♥️♥️
Get the camera closer and you got this 🎉
I don’t understand why you have all the tails to crochet around the border if they were crocheted over during the color changes? Maybe I missed something?
I only crocheted over them partially in the color changes, as I generally like to weave in a couple different directions to really secure the ends.
Sorry I cant see anything. Have I gone blind or is it a white out😂
Hmmm not sure why it’s whited out for you. It plays fine for me. Maybe a connection issue? Maybe try closing the CZcams app and restarting it? Technology 🤷🏻♀️🤣
How do you block do you have a tutorial on that
I don't, not at this time, but I have one that I like to refer people to. I hope it helps! czcams.com/video/v0Hfu0byjxs/video.html
R U sure thats a 6mm??? Love this so much Thank You!!! ;)
Yup, 6mm :) but you can size up/down as needed if your tension is different. Glad you like it! ♥️
I dont want mine that big is 22 ok to do
Absolutely! Any multiple of 2 will work!
How do I get a copy of the pattern
Hi Hannah, other than what’s written in the description box for this one, I don’t have a written pattern available for it at this time, just the video pattern. But if that’s something you’re interested in, I’ll work on getting one posted for you!
Why use such a large hook?
I like how the larger hook loosens the stitches, making the fabric less stiff. You don’t have to, it’s personal preference. 🥰
I used the larger hook for the base chain only, then went down a size for the rest. As a beginner, it made it much easier for me to work through the back loop of chain.
