This crochet dishtowel was made to match the Even Moss Stitch Dishcloth which is my most popular dishcloth pattern. I’ve used two colors in this pattern but you don’t have to, one color will work as well. If you want to see what one color will look like in this type of pattern check out the dishcloth linked before which is done all in one color.
This dishtowel stitches up fairly quickly and is a great project if you like to watch Netflix while stitching. (Just use markers to keep track of your row number)
