Alternating Spike Stitch Crochet Dishcloth

Design by Sarah Ruane from Ned and Mimi.

This alternating spike stitch crochet dishcloth features a dense, textured fabric that looks almost woven when worked in multiple colors! This dishcloth is great for advanced beginners. The alternating spike stitch is a one-row repeat, so once you get through a couple of setup rows, you’ll quickly find your rhythm. The pattern is available in adjustable sizes – a smaller washcloth and a larger tea towel.
