This is one of my favorite crochet patterns! Create this easy crochet dishcloth and matching crochet towel using the fun crochet cobble stitch.
This design looks gorgeous in almost any home decor style. But of course, it looks especially beautiful in a farmhouse or country style decor.
I was going for a tea towel look and I absolutely love the results! The yarn chosen makes all the difference. I’ll leave that detail in the materials list below.
This is the perfect crochet housewarming gift or crochet teacher gift. Make a set of two or three of the crochet dishcloths along with two of the coordinating crochet towels and you have yourself a lovely set to give (or keep for yourself). Nice eh?

The yarn chosen for this design is I Love This Cotton from Hobby Lobby. Cotton yarn is a must because the crochet dishcloth and crochet towel will be getting wet and will require easy air drying. Also, the denim blue color has a very subtle variegation so it is not a harsh color change.
