Sweetheart Washcloth Pattern

The pattern is here for the Sweetheart Washcloth! It is so cute and just in time for Valentine's Day or any day, for that matter. This fast and simple little project is the perfect handmade gift for anyone on your gift list, teachers, moms, grandmas, babies, children, etc. You get the idea, anyone would love this squishy, soft treat. Imagine bathing a baby or child using this sweet little washcloth. Love it.

Here is the information:
Finished measurements: 10-inches wide, 9-inches tall
Yarn: Crystal Palace Cotton Chenille (98 yards/50 grams)
2 skeins of contrasting colors will make 2 washcloths or 1 skein will make one washcloth in one shade.
*Any cotton yarn with a similar gauge will work fine for this project.
Needles: U.S. size 6 needles or size to obtain gauge
Crochet hook (optional, for edging only): size H
The washcloth looks cute without the edging, so no worries if you're not up to the crochet.
Gauge: 4 stitches per inch in stockinette stitch
Difficulty Level: Easy, Easy, Easy! You will use the knit stitch, knit 2 together, and ssk (slip, slip, knit 2 together through the back loop). For the crochet trim you will use a chain stitch, slip stitch, and single crochet.

This is an easy and fast project! You will love these washcloths. I am making up a big stack in all different colors to have on hand when I need a quick gift.

The fantastic soaps can be ordered from The Soap Opera. The Soap Opera, right on State Street, is a long time Madison staple. It is a fun, beautiful little shop in downtown Madison. The soaps are cut from big blocks as you order and you wouldn't believe how good they smell. The fragrance is so fresh and clean, just right. The soap is a fun touch to add to the washcloth if it is a gift but of course it's not necessary. The washcloth alone is a great gift by itself.
