This Sunshine dishcloth was designed by Lori Zeller. She has been crocheting for 35+ years. Her favorite projects are ‘little things’ that can be completed in a relatively short period of time. Lori also enjoys anything in thread with a delicate look, but ultimately, anything she can wrap around a crochet hook is fair game for her! I have had many designs published and would like to continue to have many more of my designs published.
Thank you Lori for sharing your design with fellow crocheters and for taking part in the Dishcloth-a-Day Challenge. Follow me onto dishcloth #66 and the rest of the story…

I like this one. Sunshine on a cold winters day is always a welcome sight. Thank you
very pretty. nice for gift giving-thanks
I have been looking for a pattern like this for other things, thank you for posting it.
I think I’ve found a minor typo in the pattern though. I was just making this today and on Round 9 thre is no chain 1 between the double crochet clusters, yet on round 10 you need the previous round chain 1 spaces.
This is really bright and sunshiny-happy! Thank you for sharing.
Wondering how scaleable this pattern is? E.g., could I keep repeating rounds 5-7 to make it larger, such as for a baby blanket? I love the look of the stitch pattern and would like to find ways to take it out of the kitchen!
