Free crochet pattern: nubby dishcloth
Thursday, June 11, 2009 at 9:54PM I know there are a lot of dishcloth patterns out there, but I'm trying to keep things simple since I'm new at writing patterns out. This cloth should be a great scrubber given it's nubby texture. Click here to download the pdf pattern or scroll down...

I love that your patterns say "gauge not important". Soon as I read gauge instructions in a pattern I start getting sweaty with anxiety!!!
This dishcloth is absolutely beautiful!! One of these cloths would make a great last minute gift!
I'm trying to keep things simple...I had a lot of trouble with gauge when I first started crocheting, so I'll do what I can to ease that anxiety Cathy!
And thanks Hannah! Something quick is always a bonus! :)

This is pretty enough to make a scarf out of it.
Great idea! How warm and cozy would that be!

Hi, Can you email me the pattern for the nubby dishcloth? THanks so much!! I am new to crocheting and this will be my FIRST project. Can't wait to get started.
Its on its way! Thanks for visiting, and have fun crocheting! :)
I always receive knitted or crocheted dishcloths for Christmas from my grandmother. I LOVE them, but they never match my kitchen theme. They are also always an open mesh pattern, which I love for the quick drying, but they don't seem to scrub as well.
I decided to try my hand at making my own. I'm an avid crocheter, have been since I was 9 years old. 14 years later, and I'm still going! :)
Anyway, I just wanted to say I love your pattern! Thank you for sharing!
