Free Pattern: Grill Master Washcloth

This square washcoth is designed to go along with the “Grill Master Hand Towel“. I think it makes a nice looking set plus they are both usable, not just too pretty to use.

Directions – Washcloth

Tip: this could be made any size by starting with a chain of an odd amount of stitches.

  1. With an H hook and cotton yarn (red in sample), ch 31, sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across. (30sts)

See photos below for help with the “special stitch”.

This row is repeated to create the entire towel and is referred to as “main row” from this point on.
