This summer I’ve been obsessed with crochet, especially the crochet moss stitch and the alternate moss stitch patterns. After crocheting the Summertime Market Bag and the Four Section Blanket, I became preoccupied with crocheting a cardigan. More details about the crocheted cardigan in the next post. I am giving in to this crochet obsession since it’s faster than knitting and projects are completed in less time.
The crochet moss stitch is one of my favorite crochet stitch patterns since it looks quite similar to the linen knit stitch. As with knitting, crocheting dishcloths is also a good way to try out new stitch patterns or techniques. The Speckles Dishcloths are crocheted in two different ways. One Speckles Dishcloth is crocheted flat going back and forth while the other Speckles Dishcloth is crocheted center out and in the round. An alternate to the magic ring technique is used to start the dishcloth in the round. Both dishcloths have the same slip stich, chain 1 border edge.
