EASY Textured Crochet Dish Cloth, by Bonnie Barker

[@BlessingGaia]

Thank you, Bonnie, I love the basket weave look of the front/back post crochet.

[@Ebbo_]

Very pretty! Will be trying this pattern very soon 🤗

[@lindalou5213]

Perfect !! I’ve done all those stitches on other separate projects but love using them all on this dishcloth !

[@deewelch4264]

It had been about 40 years since I’d crocheted, but broke my ankle and was laid up for months. Someone gave me a crocheted dishcloth as a gift and I liked it so much I order yarn and hooks and began watching KZbin instructions. Since then I’ve made many dishcloths, scrubbier, etc., as I wanted to try many types to see which I like best. Your channel is very good. Good camera work, clear instructions without a lot of extraneous rhetoric. Thank your very much. This is the third one of this pattern I’ve made because after making and using about twenty different patterns, this is becoming one of my favorites.

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

Dee Welch thanks for sharing your kind comments with me! I do hope your ankle is getting stronger. That would be tough to be in that spot.

[@deewelch4264]

BonnieBayCrochet Thanks for the hopeful thoughts!

[@debbieb7119]

I like the looks of the fp and bp dishcloth and will start one today for a Mother's Day gift. I love crocheting these special sts. Thank you for this awesome close up and clear instructional video.

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

My pleasure Debbie!

[@marycallies5716]

Great pattern for a dishcloth and it works up fast. I love the reverse single crochet border!

[@lindadunn8824]

Thank you for this pattern! You are an excellent teacher.

[@tessvowels3837]

Love this... kitchen sets almost complete!! Love fpdc and bpdc!!

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

It's a great texture for scrubbing too Tess!

[@kwel5522]

Thankyou Bonnie. I love this pattern. The crazy stitch was great fun. Love your work and really appreciate your methodology and style of teaching 🙂💗

[@deewelch4264]

Your channel is so great. Thank you. After not crocheting for about 40 years, I had an injury that kept me in a chair for months. So I bought some hooks and yarn and began to make all kinds of dishcloths and hot pads for my family and friends. I have tried many patterns in order to zero in on the ones we all like the best. Those that are not as closely woven are not very popular with us, but this pattern is one of our favorites. It keeps it shape better, is very functional, so I’ve made several. The border is different too, so adds some interest to a mere dishcloth. Again, I thank you for your channel which has clear instructions and good camera work.

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

So glad this is working out for you Dee! I do wish you a complete recovery. Being laid up like that is not fun at all.

Beautiful 😍

[@jennilynpittman6520]

I love this “backward” stitch! My dishcloths will now have a new look! Thank you so much for this video!

[@janmoss211]

Hey there Bonnie! I'm like a lot of us trying to stay home as much as possible during this pandemic. Was searching for a pattern to make dish cloths to use up my cotton stash to put away for Christmas as several of my family members love cotton kitchen items. This is the pattern I have decided to use. Thank you! Stay well!

Great video and pattern. I like reverse sc border. Nice look! I crochet lots of dishcloth patterns.

[@1time4younme]

Just recently found your channel... and just subscribed. I really like this cloth. The reverse stitch is really nice. I can't wait to try this. Thanks for the great tutorial. And the close-ups are perfect! Thanks, Janet

Holy cow. I’ve never seen that backwards thing. Looks so cute.

Wonderful job I, going to make these for Christmas the year.

Thanks so much for showing how the hide your ends. Like the pattern. I may have to try this one.

[@brendabrown8154]

I am starting to make dish cloth and I have made a few. I love them because they are so durable. I love this texture and will be making this next. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@JudyAbbott494]

Sorry for the ignorance. But I seem tonot get it's purpose. Is it used for cleaning like using it wet with soap or for drying dishes so it's dry?

[@JudyAbbott494]

@@BonnieBayCrochet That's nice. Gonna try this 👍

[@KatarinaS.]

@@BonnieBayCrochet My mom has been making these for many, many years, however she knits hers. I have been crocheting them them since I took up crochet and knitting, about the last ten years or so . They make a nice gift for many different occasions and people always love getting them. My problem with them is that they don't last me for years at all, sometimes only through a few washes, because they get cut from knives that are washed and then unravel. It's frustrating and I wonder how it is that you go about avoiding that? That issue makes me not want to make them to give as gifts any more, when I think that they'll just end up a mess of string in a few months after I've put the effort into making them.

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

@@KatarinaS. I've never had that happen. I usually wash knives with the blade away from me or in the dishwasher.

[@roxeyserckie5414]

Nice project! Thanks for tutorial! 🙏🙏🌴

[@samanthawalker74]

Thank you for this pattern. Love it.

[@conniecravens6270]

Love this pattern, thank you for sharing 🙂

[@mymthegreyful]

Thank you ! It's easy fun work. Reminder ; it takes two rows to establish the woven look.

[@stacyfletcher7767]

I think you make this look so easy and effortless. OH HOW I WISH my stitches look as perfect as yours..I believe it's my tension. It would be really great if you would do a tutorial/video on TENSION specifically. Showing different stitches, yarn types, weights, etc that may effect how our stitch uniformity /definition are affected. THANK YOU for the great videos for Beginners/intermediate or a beginning intermediate crocheter. You are very detailed and I have learned alot from your videos. More blankets with stitches that are a good bridge from Beginner to intermediate would be awesome as well!! Thanks again for this great video. Also the difference between the amount of yarn needed for various stitches for same size blankets/afgan projects.

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

Thanks for the suggestions Stacy! As far as tension goes, I believe it is all connected to the hand hold. I do have an older video on this here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZmacqp_e6mkhMk

[@cherylgrier8870]

I love your tutorial. I admire the stitch. Can this be used for a blanket with bulky yarn?

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

Absolutely Cheryl! I use these style front and back post stitches in many designs on my channel!

[@barbaraward9601]

If I want the cloth to be smaller, what is the multiple?

[@alyceprice238]

I finished my third textured dishcloth getting better the snarl stitch is a challenge but practice,practice practice,I see my improvement. Thank you Bonnie. Bonnie do you have a toilet paper cover in beginners pattern to crochet?

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

Alyce Price si glad this is working for you! No, I don’t have a pattern like that right now.

[@jacquelinedennis4363]

I have a question how do I make it smaller. I would want to make it half the size .

[@tsdeakin]

Great dish cloth!! I love making those post stitches. I was wondering how much yarn it uses? The whole skein of Peaches 'n Cream"?

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

I was working with a partial ball of Peaches 'n Cream yarn from another project and pretty much used all of it. I estimate that you can get 1 1/2 dish clothes from one small ball. As you know, these post stitches like a lot of yarn!

[@tsdeakin]

Thank You!

[@suzannetanner6128]

If I am makin a cloth a little bigger could I do a chain of 40 thank you

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

Suzanne Tanner you can use any number, but if you add any even number to the existing chain this pattern will be the same as you begin each row.

[@dorothyannwojcicki55]

do you have a written pattern for this easy textured crochet dish cloth?

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

Dorothy Ann Wojcicki not yet, but I’ll add this to my growing to do list!😊

[@earthwormsallyrobloxsgamer6780]

Look lady slowed down I'm still a beginner and now you have finished your project and I have to watch this another 10 times lol

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

There is a little icon on the bottom right of the screen that looks like a gear. If you click that, you can slow any video down to 1/2 speed and view at a much slower pace. You are welcome!

[@janicebrown496]

I’m having a terrible time - if you chain 30 and start 3 stitches from hook - I end up with 27 stitches not 28 - what am I missing 🤔

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

I actually started in the 3rd chain from the hook (in other words, I didn't use 2 of the chains), giving me 28 double crochets. You can easily make this with 27 stitches, but you will end with a front post double crochet instead of a back post double crochet. Hope this is helpful Janice!

[@hazelmckenzie1093]

I did the 30 chains. I have 28 dc (NOT 20)

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

Thank you Hazel.

[@luwandaartrelle4250]

The border is also called the crab stitch or reverse single crochet.

[@maggiegiroux4984]

Knitting too fast..can’t get it

You can slow down this video by clicking the gear icon in the lower right (of computer screens), or the three vertical dots in the upper righthand of cell phones. This will take you to a menu where you can choose the playback speed. I hope this helps.
