The Houndstooth Crochet Stitch

I decided to make a dishcloth in the houndstooth stitch. I hadn't tried this stitch
before but my daughter uses it a lot and I think it's beautiful. 

There are some different ways to make this stitch. You can see how to make
the larger houndstooth design here.

I thought that was a little too big for a dishcloth, so I chose the smaller version which you
can see how to do on this video.


Here are photos of my Houndstooth Dishcloth. I used the ligher weight size 3 cotton 
yarn from Knitca.com




As you can see, each side of the dishcloth looks a little different. I'm not sure which
side I like better!
