FAQ’s (Frequently Asked Questions)

How do I make it smaller?
This dishcloth is made with a multiple of 2. So I would adjust the beginning chain by a multiple of 2 to the size you want your washcloth to be.
What does eesc mean
It is made by alternating single crochet and double crochet. So this entire dishcloth is made from a combination of single crochet and double crochet.
My Dishcloth Won’t Lay Flat
I would recommend going up one hook size and crocheting a bit more loosely.
