Crochet Face Cloth Pattern

It is Freebie Friday again! As a new blog, I didn't have any entries in last week's giveaway so I will be doing another giveaway very soon. I love to give things away especially my patterns that other people can create items that they can use in their everyday life! Today I am giving you a free crochet pattern that I have been using for years. This is my much loved face cloth pattern that have been very popular with my friends and family.

I make the face clothes using cotton yarn. It is a great way of using scrap cotton yarn from the end of a project or you can buy a skein for under $2 at Walmart or Michaels.

*If you have any questions about the pattern please feel free to comment on the post or email me at redshoeaffair@gmail.com

Crochet Face Cloth Pattern

Supplies:
Size G Crochet Hook
One skein of cotton yarn 
Large Eye Needle to sew in ends
Basic Knowledge of Crochet terms and stitches 










Stitches:
hdc= half double crochet
sc= single crochet
ch=chain stitch
ss= slip stitch

Instructions:
ch 10



Row 1: hdc in 2nd ch from hook, hdc in each ch (8 hdc), ch 1, turn



Row 2-5: hdc in each stitch across, ch 1, turn
Row 6: hdc in each stitch across, ch 1




Edging:
This will be done evenly along each side of the cloth without cutting the yarn. With the cloth facing you, we will start with the left side of the cloth. 
Sc evenly along the side of the cloth for 6 sc. At the Corner 3 sc in one stitch (this keeps the cloth flat and helps it to not curl its corners). Sc 8 along the bottom. At the Corner 3 sc in one stitch. Sc evenly along the right side. At the corner 3 sc in one stitch. Sc 6 along the top leaving the last stitch open! At the 6 sc ch 10. Attach the ch chain  to the first sc on the left side with a slip stitch. Cut off the end and weave the end in.


Now you have a pattern you can use for yourself or make for you friends and family! I hope you enjoy this pattern and have a great day!
