Unique Yarn Designs

With the terrible rainy weather that has invaded the southeast of the US, I have found myself dreaming of spring and bright colors. Since Saint Patrick’s Day is on the way, I decided to use a bright color and make up something new! Dishcloths make amazing gifts and give a nice handmade touch to any kitchen or bathroom. People that use handmade crochet dishcloths know that they provide great exfoliation and get softer with time. Enjoy this new four leaf clover dishcloth crochet pattern and let me know if you have any questions!

This post includes a written pattern and a graph. I can’t wait to see all the projects completed with this pattern!

Let’s Get Started!

  • 4.5 mm crochet hook
  • Yarn needle/ darning needle
  • Lily Sugar n’ Cream- white

Instructions: Four Leaf Clover Dishcloth Crochet Pattern

Below is the graph for this pattern. This is a dishcloth made with single crochets, so each square on the graph is one single crochet stitch.

Making the Edge

Since a dishcloth can tend to be used pretty heavily, I went with a basic single crochet edging. With green, sc around the square twice, making 3 sc in the corners to have a nice squared finish.

That’s all there is to it! I hope you loved the pattern.
