Materials:

• H (5.0 mm) crochet hook

• Yarn/tapestry needle
• Scissors
• Measuring Tape

Sizing:

• 9 inches wide

Pattern Notes:

• To make a puff stitch, wrap yarn around hook, bring up a loop (3 loops on the hook), wrap yarn around hook again and bring up a loop (5 loops on the hook), wrap yarn around hook and bring up a loop (7 loops on the hook). Wrap yarn around hook one last time and bring it through all 7 loops on the hook.
• Never worked a puff stitch? Check out the video where I walk you through the stitch step by step!
• Easily change the dishcloth width by adjusting the multiple of the starting chain (see below for stitch multiple)
• Change the height of the dishcloth by working more rows of the pattern.
