I made this dishcloth by combining the moss stitch and star stitch. I think it's very
pretty. I call it Pretty Flowers in the Moss.
I used the lighter weight cotton from Knitca.com and a 4.50 mm hook.
I have a post here about making the Star Stitch.

The Moss Stitch is very easy. It is simply 1hdc, 1 slipstitch and you repeat that to
the end of the row. On the next row you make 1 hdc in each slip stitch and 1
slip stitch in each hdc of the previous row. Here is a video showing how to
do it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tR2GfDB80tE
I enjoy experimenting with different stitches for dishcloths. This combination would
also look very nice if used for an afghan.
This blog features crochet and knitting patterns. Most are free, some are for sale. Even though I offer all my own pattern designs for free, I like to also feature patterns that are for sale as I know the many hours it takes to design a pattern and then to write it all up. So please support a designer if you can.
