Hello everyone! Today I thought I would share my next crochet project with you; dishcloths! But it’s not just any dishcloth, it’s a dishcloth that has a beautiful texture with beautiful yarn! The yarn that I’ve used for this pattern is called Peaches and Creme Ombre – Oasis.
This is a cotton yarn which is great for practical crochet projects like dishcloths. It’s softer and much more durable than acrylic. Plus it just feels so much nicer to hold and feel.
I really am quite happy with the way that the yarn looks in this pattern too. Sometimes with the speckled or striped yarns, it’s difficult to tell how it’ll look with your project. The little chocolate and brownish-red flecks break up that main beige color in such a way that’s pleasing to the eye.
The texture created is really simple too. It’s a combination of a single crochet and two double crochets in the same stitch, then skipping two stitches. The stitches lay in such a way that it makes a subtle “bulge” in the project, creating a beautiful, squishy texture.
When finished, the dishcloth measures about 7″ x 7″ (give or take depending on your gauge).
Here’s a close up of the texture with the Peaches and Creme Oasis yarn:
Pretty isn’t it?
As always, you can use any type of yarn you like for this project, and it doesn’t have to be a dishcloth. You can make a blanket or a scarf or a burp cloth for example. Just make sure your yarn is a medium 4 weight yarn or else it might come out too big or small!

Materials Used:
- 5 mm crochet hook
- 1 little skein (2oz) of Peaches and Creme Cotton Yarn – Oasis
- Scissors
- Tapestry Needle
Abbreviations Used:
Please note that I am using US crochet terms and not UK crochet terms for this pattern.
- ch(s) – chain(s)
- sc – single crochet
- dc – double crochet
- st(s) – stitch(es)
- sl st – slip stitch
Special Considerations:
- If you need to adjust the size of your project, chain a multiple of 13 + 1.
- The turning chain does not count as a stitch.
Textured Crochet Dishcloth Pattern:
- Ch 26
- Row 1: From second ch from hook, make *(1 sc, 2 dc) in the same ch, skip 2 chs.* Repeat from *to* until you reach the last 3 chs. Make 1 sc in last ch. Turn (25 sts)
- Row 2: Ch 1, (turning ch does not count as a st) make *(1 sc, 2 dc) in the next st, skip next 2 sts.* Repeat from *to* until you reach the last 3 sts, 1 sc in last st. Turn (25 sts)
- Row: 3-18 (or until desired height): Repeat Row 2
You can sc a border around the dishcloth if you’d like, but it is totally optional. Otherwise cut your yarn, pull through, and weave in end with tapestry needle.
Border: sc in each st across until the last st, (sc, ch 1, sc) in the corner st. Crocheting down the side of a project can be challenging, since we are making a square, try to make the side as even as the top/bottom (so 25 sts). Continue making (sc, ch 1, sc) in the corner sts and sc across until the last st. Sl st to last stitch, Cut yarn and pull through. Weave in end with tapestry needle.
As always, thank you for reading this post and happy crocheting! Until next time!
