This year I am posting a new pattern for a cloth of some kind each week. People have seemed to enjoy our first one of the year, “January Washcloth“. This week’s scrubbie is very similar, but made with 2 strands held together and a J hook. One end is left open so your hand can […]
Weekly Wash
Weekly Wash #1: January Washcloth
I love making washcloths, hanging towels and scrubbies. They are a great project for in the car and waiting rooms. I try to whip up several throughout the year and build a stash for last minute gifts. A few years ago I featured and designed a different cloth or scrubbie each week the entire year. […]
Weekly Wash #27: Washcloth in a Jif
We’ve all had that moment when we needed something right then but had very little time to make or buy it. This past week, while traveling, I realized I hadn’t put the washcloths back in the trailer after our last trip. I had lots of cotton yarn and wanted to whip up several in a […]
Weekly Wash #26: Let Us Scrub
Did I set out to crochet a head of lettuce? No, but that is totally what I ended up with! lol. I wanted a scrubbie to slip over my hand with one nubby side and one loufa-ish side. I LOVE how it turned out… even if it does look like a head of lettuce. […]
Weekly Wash #25: Cleaning Spots
Earlier this year I made some “Whiteboard cloths” and hung them on command hooks by my whiteboards. They have been AMAZING! I wash them once a week and my boards have never been cleaner. My granddaughter (age 2) even uses them to clean the board after doodling. When my daughter needed some new whiteboard erasers […]
Weekly Wash #24: XL Ribby Cloth
I try to always have a “mindless” project ready for road trips. Something I can work on while also playing co pilot, cruise director, waitress and busboy. When I finish one project I make sure I refill my little on-the-go bag so it is always ready. One thing I usually have going is a dishcloth […]
Weekly Wash #23: Ribby Cloth
A few years ago I designed this cloth for my facebook group as a crochet along. So many cute ones were made and people seemed to enjoy this simple but very useful cloth. This past week, while making an extra large version of it for my daughter, I realized I never released this pattern outside […]
Weekly Wash #22: Hard-Working Cloths
Yes, I do have this thing about crocheting cloths. They are great little projects to work on almost anywhere and in the car plus they are nice to stash away for gifts. But, let’s face it, some cloths are too pretty for scrubbing dishes and many take some concentration to make. These little “hard-working cloths” […]
