Crochet dishcloth patterns are one of my favorite crochet projects to create. They are such a quick and easy project to make and they make great practice for trying out new crochet stitches.
The Sophia Dishcloth uses the single crochet and two double crochet stitches in a cluster to create a neat-looking texture.

Waht happens after row 27?
Looks like an edit messed up, got that fixed. 27 is the last row, so after you do the single crochets you just tie off and weave in the ends.
