I found this cute Square Washcloth pattern while browsing through the free household item patterns on Stitch11. I had some cotton yarn laying around that I got on clearance back around Spring time, and decided to give the pattern a go.
Materials I Used:
- I skein of Lily Sugar n Cream in Beach Ball Blue
- H8/5mm Crochet Hook (smaller than recommended)
- #18 Tapestry Needle for Weaving in Ends
- Stitch11 Square Washcloth (free crochet pattern)
Material Notes:
Yarn Alternatives: Bernat Handicrafter Yarn, Lion Brand Kitchen Cotton, Crafters Secret Cotton.
With one skein, and the recommended hook size, I was only able to complete one washcloth, this is why I went down a size.
Time Spent:
I was able to work up two washcloths in about an hour.
Measurements:
With I9/5.5mm Hook: 8.5″ Square
With H8/5mm Hook: 7.5″ Square
Pattern Notes:
I really like the look of these washcloths – the four triangles coming together look. According to Corina, this look also allows this washcloth to stretch in all directions so it keeps it’s square shape.
Make a matching pair of facial scrubbies, and this would make a great gift set!

Hi Alexandra! Blogger is blocking me from replying to your lovely comments at my blog but I wanted to stop by to say Thank You. I really do appreciate the feedback & one of these days I'm going to pick up my crochet hooks again and make this project 😉 Have a great weekend!
It's a nice, quick project for you to pick back up with. Thanks for stopping by!
Nice. These would make some pretty coasters too if they’re not too big.
Thank you for sharing at The Really Crafty Link Party. Pinned.
You can always size them down – I plan to because I love square projects – so versatile. I apologize for the delay in responding, but I’ve been buried in Spam Comments – had to work through it all.
Great idea for washcloths and maybe use a rougher yarn for the facial scrubbers. Thank you for sharing on Merry Monday! We hope you will join us again next week!

These make excellent facial scrubbers! I actually have a few pairs I have made myself – feel so nice against the skin. I apologize for the delay in responding, but I’ve been buried in Spam Comments – had to work through it all.
Love these colours together. Very creative 🙂
Thanks so much for sharing your post with us at Creative Mondays last week.
These are adorable! I have very basic crochet skills, but I think I could make these. Thanks so much for sharing at Thursday Favorite Things!
These are absolutely beginner friendly! I apologize for the delay in responding, but I’ve been buried in Spam Comments – had to work through it all.
