What size are crochet dishcloths?

around 8″ by 8″
The Best Crochet Dishcloth Pattern The average size for a dishcloth is around 8″ by 8″ but you can make them any size you want! Before you grab your crochet hook and dive in, it would be a great idea to head to Pinterest and create a “Crochet Stitches” board if you don’t already have one.

How many chains do you need for a dishcloth?

First, when you start, you begin with a chain that is the width you want the dishcloth to be. This will vary depending on how tight you crochet and how big you want your cloth but I would say anywhere from 25 to 30 stitches is good.

How many stitches do you cast on for a dishcloth?

Tug the yarn to tighten the loop around the needle. Repeat this until you have cast on 19 stitches for a total of 20 including the slipknot. Casting on 20 stitches will create a dishcloth that is about 8 in (20 cm) wide.

What yarn do you use to crochet dishcloth?

Cotton yarn is the best for dishcloths, but you’ll want to make sure it’s absorbent, too.

How much should I sell my crochet dishcloths?

But if you do some research, you could reasonably get $5.00 for a washcloth – and it’s more likely to sell in a set of 2 (or 3 if you crochet faster) for $10.00. One rule in selling is “it’s only worth what someone will pay for it”.
