Plaid Washcloth

Design by Sarah Ruane from Ned and Mimi.

Learn how to crochet the interlocking block stitch (also called the crochet plaid stitch) through this washcloth pattern that also comes with a video tutorial.

This stitch pattern uses just basic stitches—chains and double crochet—but in a way that weaves magic. With three different colors at play, this stitch creates a stunning, almost woven fabric that looks far more complicated than it actually is.
