Tutorial Series: The Crochet Granite Stitch

Posted in The Crochet Granite Stitch, Tutorial Series by

As the Crochet Moss Stitch (Tutorial Series: The Crochet Moss Stitch), the Crochet Granite Stitch is another variation of the single crochet stitches and chain ones

Comparing the Crochet Granite and Moss Stitches:

The crochet moss and the crochet granite are both reversible and beginner-friendly stitch patterns. The two stitches, however, differ in the placement of the crochet hook to make the single crochet stitch. In the crochet moss stitch, the crochet hook is inserted into the chain one space to make the single crochet stitch, whereas in the crochet granite stitch, the crochet hook is inserted into the “V” of the single crochet stitch of the previous row.

The location of the crochet hook to make the single crochet stitch changes both the appearance and texture of these two crocheted items. This stitch is one of my favorite crochet stitches and I have used this stitch in several of my patterns including The Serenity Grace Wrap, The Four Section Blanket, Textured Dishcloth, Favorite Things Cowl, The Silky Long Scarf etc.

The Textured Dishcloth Pattern

Posted in January 2026, The Textured Dishcloth Pattern by


Knitting or crocheting dishcloths are useful for exploring various stitch patterns, for personal use, and for gifting. Dishcloths are quick projects that can be knit or crocheted in a few days. This makes them perfect for both beginners and seasoned crafters looking to learn new techniques. Dishcloths can enhance a kitchen décor or add a pop of color to it. Gifting dishcloths for those domestic muses in our lives that give us delicious and soul-satisfying meals is my way of thanking them for their effort and care. Also, knitting or crocheting dishcloths has been meditative and calming for me this winter season.

The Textured Dishcloth is crocheted flat from one corner to another in the granite crochet stitch pattern which is a variation of the crochet moss stitch pattern. It begins with a chain of 2 stitches with an increase of 4 stitches every other row, and then a decrease of 4 stitches every other row till a square shape is formed. The dishcloth is finished with a crochet moss stitch border along with a hanging loop of crochet chain stitches. This dishcloth is a two-row repeat pattern that can be customized to any size. It is beginner friendly and can be used with any worsted weight cotton yarn suitable for dishcloths.
