Suzette Stitch Dishcloth

In honor of Earth Day, I'm sharing a dishcloth pattern.   I like using 100% cotton cloths in the kitchen and bathroom.  Once they start looking a little dingy, I use them as reusable paper towels for cleaning, wiping and other chores.  The old ones are stored in a pretty basket under my sink.  When they get really grungy, they are sent to the rag box in the garage for outdoor chores.  Eco-Friendly!

I have been trying the past few years to make less of an impact on the environment through my choices in shopping and my use of disposable products at home.

This is one of my favorite patterns.  Once you try it, you will see why.  The Suzette Stitch gives a nicely textured solid dishcloth.  It's a simple combination of single crochet and double crochet, which makes it easy for beginners.

Supplies:
Cotton Yarn 75-100yards
Size H Crochet Hook
Yarn Needle

Stitches & Abbreviations:
Chain = ch
Double Crochet = dc
Single Crochet = sc
Stitch = st
Hook = hk

Pattern:

• Chain 28 
• Row 1: sc & dc in the second ch from the hk, skip one ch, (sc & dc in next, skip one ch) repeat across, sc in last ch, ch 1 turn
• Row 2:  sc & dc in the first st skip one st, (sc & dc in next, skip one st) repeat across, sc in last st, ch 1 turn
• Repeat row 2 until dishcloth is square or desired size.  Weave in ends using the yarn needle. 

Notes: To resize this dishcloth or to use the Suzette Stitch for another project, use an even number in the starting chain.
