Hi, thank you for such a beautiful pattern and I especially love the colors! I’m thinking of making these dishcloths as a gift.
Thank you for your comment! I’m grateful that you are liking the dishcloths.
Carolyn, thanks for another great pattern! I am passing on the information to the Pink Slipper Project group, too, as we are now making washcloths, as well as slippers, for the shelters! 🙂
Thanks, Judy! I think the group will love this dishcloth pattern. It works up really nice. I’m grateful to be of help!

Hi and thanks for a great pattern 🙂
I want to make it bigger, how do I do that? Multiples of what + something?
Sorry if it sounds like a stupid question, I’m new to crocheting and don’t know how to do that 😉
Hi Gerda, you just chain an even number (multiple of 2) and you will be good to go! 🙂 Good luck.
Thanks for the share! Pretty amazing project to start 😀
