Pattern Notes

The pattern is written in US Crochet Terminology.

After the purchase of this PDF file, you will find two more files to download- a PDF and PNG version of the gift wraps. I included both version as my printer prints the PNG better than the PDF version. So you can see which one works for you as well.

The Gauge is not essential for this project, but still try to meet it, if you want to have similar size washcloth as mine.

The pattern is multiple of 12 sts + 6 + 1 for symmetrical ends on both sides.

I design this stitch to be used vertically and the washcloth is crochet side to side. And after that a border is worked in joined rounds to give more polished look.

For the border we don’t have any corners as I find that it is unnecessary for this design.

Special Stitches

Yarn over slip stitch (yoss)– YO, insert hook in indicated st, YO and pull up a loop, Pull that loop directly through all loops on the hook.

puff stitch– *YO, insert hook in indicated st, YO, pull through* rep 3 times (7 loops on hook), YO, pull through first 6 loops (2 loops on hook), YO, pull through all the loops.

yoss blo– work the yoss in the back loops only.
