These modern textured dishcloths are made using the griddle stitch, which means they have just the right amount of texture and are super easy to make.

If you’re looking for a quick, beginner-friendly crochet dishcloth pattern, this is it! With these dishcloths, you can make them whatever size you want, as long as you chain an odd number of chains.
Because these are dishcloths, you’ll want to make sure you use 100% cotton yarn. Cotton yarn is durable and can withstand the wear and tear of washing dishes. Also, cotton yarns are machine washable, which is definitely a plus when it comes to dishcloths.
Additionally, I love the stitch definition that cotton yarn gives and the beautiful colors that are available.

Materials:
- One skein of 100% worsted weight cotton yarn. For my dishcloths, I used Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton in the colors white, goldenrod, and dragonfly.
- US size G 4.0 mm crochet hook
- Scissors
- Tapestry needle
Size (approximate) 10” x 10”
Size Adjustment: To adjust the size of your dishcloth, start with a longer or shorter chain, keeping an odd number of chains. Follow the crochet pattern until your dishcloth is the size you want.
Pattern Notes:
- The chain 1 does not count as a stitch.
- If you have trouble identifying the first or last stitch of the row, use stitch markers to help you keep track.
Abbreviations (US):
ch – chain
st(s) – stitch(es)

Modern Textured Crochet Dishcloth Pattern
To begin ch 37
Row 1: Starting in the 2nd ch from the hook, *sc in ch, dc in next ch*. Repeat from * to * across the row. Ch 1 and turn.
Row 2: Starting in the 1st st, *sc in st, dc in next st*. Repeat from * to * across the row. Ch 1 and turn. (Always sc into a dc. Always dc into a sc)
- The first st of each row will always be a sc.
- The last st of each row will always be a dc.
Repeat row 2 until your dishcloth reaches 10” or your desired length.
Add a Border
With your yarn still attached, ch 1 and sc around the dishcloth. Whenever you reach a corner, place 3 sts in the corner. When you arrive back at the corner where you started, place 3 sts in that corner. Fasten off and weave in ends.
