This dish towel pattern is a matching towel to the Sophia Dishcloth pattern.
The pattern uses the single crochet stitch and 2 double crochet stitches in a cluster to make a beautifully textured towel. Half double crochet stitches are used to make complementing colored stripes.

I want to say thank you for this pattern. I have made changes to it but still looks great! I changed the 1 sc, and 2 dc and made it 1 sc, 1 hdc, and 1 dc. And instead of the hdc border area under the color changes I just used the same stitch all the way through it. Thanks again for the inspiration 🙂
