#28 Lavender Lane Crochet Dishcloth

This dishcloth features a special row of treble crochet stitches.  The remaining rows are simple single and double crochet stitches.  The jewel for February is amethyst so I thought purple shades would be nice.  I love to crochet while watching TV or on long drives with my husband.  I don’t know what life would be like without this amazing pastime – crochet.

Follow me onto dishcloth #29 and the rest of the story…
