The dishcloth is worked in modified single crochet, alternating front and back loops to create a neat, ridged texture. The motif is created using basic intarsia or tapestry crochet techniques, so some familiarity with colourwork is recommended.

The sample was made using Drops Paris 100% Cotton in the following shades:

17 (Off White)

37 (Bordeaux)

12 (Red)

59 (Old Pink)

57 (Baby Pink)

25 (Moss Green)

The pattern works well with any cotton yarn (or similar), making it a great way to use up leftover yarn in fresh, summery colours.
