Lemon Peel Mesh Washcloth

 

Over the past two weeks, I have experimented with the traditional Lemon Peel stitch (alternating single crochet and double crochet.)  It is my favorite and most used stitch!  

This particular variation of the Lemon Peel Stitch, I name Lemon Peel Mesh.  It is my favorite so far!  This made a beautiful washcloth with just a bit of stretch.  


Here's a close up of the stitches
