Crochet Pattern Dishcloth / Washcloth "Love Birds"

Product description

These love birds are so nice to look at that you can use the motif for various projects, depending on the yarn you use.

For example, using a soft baby yarn the cloth can be a comforter right from birth – when the child gets older, it can still be used as a soft face cloth / wash cloth. Crocheted with 100 % cotton yarn you can work the cloth as XL potholders or as a decorative dish cloth. With bulky yarn you can even crochet a doll blanket or a pillow case.

Crocheting with two colours is quite easy and is explained in detail in the pattern.

perfekte Beschreibung
Dieses wunderschöne Tuch ist recht groß und aufwendig, aber es lohnt sich. Besonders gefallen haben mir die Angaben, wie man ein kurzes, mittleres und langes Tuch arbeiten kann. Die Angaben zum jeweiligen Verbrauch passen exakt! Vielen Dank dafür!

Super Übung
Da ich bisher eher gehäkelt und noch nicht so viel gestrickt habe, habe ich diese Anleitung genutzt, um zu schauen, ob ich mit den zwei Fäden beim Doubleface zurecht komme und es ging super. Sehr schön erklärt, vielen Dank
