Candy Cane Striped Washcloth Crochet Pattern

 Candy Cane Striped Washcloth

 Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs





The Candy Cane Striped Washcloth

Crochet Pattern 

 is a C2C or Corner To Corner Crochet Stitch. 
Some People Call it a Crochet technique.
I think it's really fun to crochet And sure hope you
 enjoy stitching some up.


It consists of of 2 rows of 2 different colors of yarn
 to form the stripe pattern and a 3rd color for trim.
I love how it looks and will brighten up 
your Christmas and Holiday decorations.



It is designed to be a 9 X 9 inch washcloth.
It is a perfect size to use as a small doily for a 
candy dish, candle or any festive decoration.
I chose to use I Love This Cotton from Hobby Lobby
 because I had it on hand in my yarn stash. 
You can use any medium (4) weight cotton 
yarn you prefer.
