Knit a washcloth: 40 patterns with photos of crocheted washcloths for beginners

What material to use

You can purchase both natural and artificial threads. Materials of natural origin will make the grater a little more useful, but such things do not have a long service life.

This is interesting: things knitted from synthetic thread have an impressive service life, up to one year.

Threads are sold in any market, so purchasing them is not a difficult task. You have to choose from the following fabrics:

Robust and reliable structure with an impressive service life. You can also knit a pole with your own hands from jute. You can use manila fiber, burlap, rayon and nylon.

Important! The tied pole, after completing work on it, must be boiled in hot water for about 10-15 minutes.

This way you will make it softer and eliminate possible “factory” bacteria and odors. It is important to choose a high-quality tool, starting from the rigmarole used. We recommend choosing hooks with a round end.

Types of washcloths

Many girls and women are simply unable to take a bath without such a bath accessory. A good and tough tap does an excellent job of ridding the body of dead skin cells, and also allows you to cleanse the pores and skin.

Step-by-step master class on how to knit washcloths and mittens with elongated loops

Be sure to practice knitting elongated loops before you start knitting the product itself. The instructions, extremely simple and ideal for beginners, sound like this:

We put a chain of air loops on the hook.
We knit 3 rows in a single crochet stitch.
We knit a chain loop, then a single crochet.
Insert the hook into the previous strip and knit a loop.
Picking up the working twine from below, we make a large ring.
Insert the hook into the loop of the base.
We pick up the twine again and pull it through 3 loops.

Now we will learn how to crochet washcloths and mittens using elongated loops. In order to knit the product correctly, you must follow the instructions exactly without skipping steps.

We begin knitting by knitting a series of “air” loops in a circular manner. Please note that the size of your future washcloth will depend on the size of the ring. The standard size is 40 loops. The height of the product must be determined independently.
Single crochet we knit seven rows in stitches.
On the next strip we knit elongated loops.
We complete the work as follows: two chains of air loops, then you need to connect them into a ring. As a result, we get two washcloth handles.
We turn the washcloth with the elongated loops outward.
Our product is ready! Please note: before using a washcloth, you need to wash it and pour boiling water over it to make the product softer.

With hard and soft sides

At first glance, you might think that the method of knitting washcloths is a rather difficult craft, demanding on the skill level of the master.

However, this is not so - you can get ready-made needlework using a diagram and step-by-step instructions, adding to them a little attentiveness and perseverance.

The main skill that will be useful to you in business is the skill of knitting shaggy stakes. Before starting the lesson, you can practice and get your hands on a little.

To create a double-sided model, it is best to use hook No. 4. The fabric used is polypropylene thread, absolutely any kind.

You choose the color of the product yourself - you can make it in one tone, or choose several colors.

Please note: one surface will be pleasant, while the other will be dense and hard. The first one must be woven lengthwise, the second one – across.

Step by step guide:

First, you need to complete a chain, which determines the horizontal size.
The first and second lines are knitted from S/BN.
The third line will be different for colored and plain washcloths. If you have a variegated model, you need to knit an air loop using two threads, then make two S/BN stitches and finish with a fluffy stitch. The last column is recreated from the chain from which the length was determined.
To create a fluffy column you need 5 bars with a CAPAGE, secured using a weightless buttonhole. Then three cap pegs are knitted, and the procedure for creating a lush column is repeated again. You will have to weave in this way until the end of the column.
In the fourth column, an air buttonhole is constructed, then you need to move on to the non-cap posts, placing them in the buttonholes of the previous section. If your creation has more than one color, the last buttonhole is secured with two threads.
The fifth is knitted with yarn of the very first color, including a weightless buttonhole. Then you need to move on to alternating: 3 sc and a lush post. As a result, you will get a hedgehog washcloth.
The sixth line is scored in the same way as the fourth.
The seventh row is different if your item has several colors. In this case, at this stage, yarn of the next color is taken. Weaving is similar to the fifth line.
The eighth row completely repeats the fourth.
The design continues until you reach the required dimensions established by the very first chain. As you may have noticed, looped thread is the most important skill for knitting washcloths.

The second, silky surface is prepared from the beginning of the side, resulting in the process of working on the canvas. The procedure completely repeats the pattern of the hard side, with one exception: the lush bars must be knitted from three throw-on columns.

Their alternation occurs not through three columns, but through two. When you complete the second section, both planes are applied to each other and sewn together from the wrong side.

You can tie the completed creation along its entire length using a hook. All that remains is to add handles, which can be made from cotton ribbon.

Tip: do not forget to boil the finished washcloth - this will add softness.

Lush loofah

To make the washcloth look fluffy, you need to use a polypropylene thread folded in half. We begin the work with a set of thirty air loops and connect them with a ring. We knit a single crochet into each of the air loops. In the next row, single crochets alternate with single crochets. Then the same pattern is repeated.

"Bumps"

This is a beautiful and colorful handicraft, which is a real pleasure to use. For this task you will need to use equipment No. 5 and yarn of several colors.

The procedure consists of weaving a line of thirty-six loops, which is subsequently secured into a circle.

Step by step guide:

The first row is created using single crochet risers.
From the 2nd to the fourth line it is worth taking cap columns.
The image of cones is used as the main image of the washcloth. They are created to a maximum horizontal level determined by the wizard. The element consists of three yarn overs woven together. The cones alternate through two risers. Tip: The oval pattern should be staggered.
Since the “circle” weaving model is used, you should finish the needlework according to the same pattern in which you started, only in reverse order.
If you want to create handles, you can go two different ways: knit them separately and secure them, or start working on one and then move on to the second. The choice is yours.

Round washcloth for bathing

The washcloth-mitten, made of threads of various colors, resembles a fancy flower. To make it neat and fluffy, we work with one thread. We start with five air loops, which are looped and after one lifting loop are knitted in a circle using single crochets. In the next row, already elongated loops are knitted between the columns of the previous row, securing them with single crochets.

After the air lifting loop, a row is formed with single crochets, increasing their number: one and two stitches are knitted into cells in turn. Then a whole row of elongated loops is knitted again. Gradually other colors are included, and in the photo the washcloth resembles a flower.

"Spiral"

Another beautiful flat product that is a pleasure to give and use. The spiral consists of a double line, each of which includes forty-seven loops, fastened in a circle.

Detailed instructions for making a circular crocheted washcloth:

The first row is knitted from RLS. They need to be placed in each loop of the main line.
2 and all subsequent sections are performed with elongated loops attached to each block. As soon as you finish working on the six elements, you should take a thread of a different shade. The color change is ongoing.
The pattern, also called a “fox”, is created by shifting the shade by exactly one buttonhole in each section. Dimensions in length can be absolutely any. The process should be completed with the use of RLS. The washcloth-mitten is ready!

Crochet my own jute washcloth

Hi all!

My crazy little hands have recently picked up another hobby - knitting washcloths. As I already told you, last summer I bought a jute washcloth and was terribly disappointed with it - hard, rough, ugly. Yes, over time it became softer, I got used to it, but I’m still not happy with it.

The winter and spring holidays are here, when gifts are needed for friends and relatives. And many of my friends are fond of natural materials and handmade creativity - for example, handmade soap, custom-made toys, etc. So, a knitted jute sponge or, as it is now called, an eco-scrub with a peeling and deep cleansing effect is just a good gift. But where can I get it? I will never give one like I have, and with which I am terribly dissatisfied. And there is nowhere to buy others in our city. All that remains is to do it yourself.

And recently, as if by order, I came across a video by the wonderful craftswoman Natalia about jute knitting. And I just fell in love with her YouTube channel and the jute itself. I already had a skein of jute twine, from which I was going to knit something, but upon closer examination it turned out that it was unsuitable for knitting - too thick (four threads), rough, with many inclusions in the form of sticks, twigs, sawdust, etc. husks.

How I looked for where to buy jute in our city is a separate epic, worthy of the talent of Shakespeare or Homer, but I still did it and found what I needed:

Stationery jute weighing 1.5 kg (to be absolutely precise - 1569 grams).

I knitted from a video from Natalia’s lessons, imagining a little along the way, since I’m pretty good (immodestly, right?) at crocheting.

The video lessons are very good - competent, understandable, easy, the video and sound are of good quality, the voice is pleasant to listen to, all knitting techniques are filmed close-up on a light background so that they are clearly visible, excellent editing. Overall, this is the first time I've come across such a well-made instructional video.

Honestly, this is not an advertisement at all, I don’t know the author of the channel, and even before I got acquainted with her lessons, I really, really didn’t like videos, I preferred written master classes with photos and pictures, for example, like in my articles about biscorn or ziguga. Perhaps this was due to the disgusting quality of the video. And now I am happy to adopt Natalia’s experience and learn from her video lessons.

This is how my jute washcloth-mitten was born.

Ready “front” side and “back”.

Here is the result - the “face” and “back” are connected, a loop is attached for hanging on a hook. The finished washcloth-mitten is slightly larger than the palm of your hand so that you can put it on your hand:

I tied it on the sides with a “crown” pattern, I didn’t like how it turned out, so I unraveled it. And yes, jute has not yet learned to bleach, so the washcloth turned out to be one color - golden brown. I don’t have time for bleaching yet (the reasons for the lack of time and how I sleep and fall when I walk down the street can be found here), but a little later I’ll definitely try to bleach the jute thread.

It took about 75 grams of thread and about 3 hours of time for one washcloth, if you take your time, periodically glancing with one eye at the computer screen with a movie (I allowed myself to rest for half a day while doing needlework, otherwise I might go crazy from all this fuss) and sipping tea with stevia

Then I washed it, as the author recommends, but did not steam it with an iron yet, it is still drying after washing.

I think I’ll have time to knit a few more - for myself to replace the old one, for my mother and friends as a gift. Also in the plans are a jute pencil holder and baskets from the same lessons, but so far I can’t find the necessary glue, as in the video.

In general, I was fired up with a lot of ideas

How do you like the resulting washcloth? Write in the comments what you think about eco-materials and jute, I will be waiting for your feedback. Good luck everyone!

Dish scrubber

Using knitting needles, you can knit flat sponges for washing dishes. Any synthetic material that is durable and reliable will do. You can work with a crochet hook or knitting needles.

For beginners, the simplest version is suitable - a scarf pattern. Its peculiarity lies in the need to knit loops in the front and back rows. Knitted sponges can also be in the form of mittens, which are convenient to work with.

For a thing with a diameter of about 10 centimeters, you should purchase only 20 grams of matter. It is better to choose a medium thickness gimp. The work is performed with instrument No. 4.

You can use structures of different shades to create a multi-colored pattern. In addition to the main tool, you will need scissors and a needle. On the Internet you can find many master classes and videos that will help you work on this creation.

Let's sum it up

This tutorial will help you knit a washcloth. As you may have noticed while reading, this is a fairly simple craft that can bring a lot of pleasure from the process itself.

A homemade item, enclosed in a beautiful package, will be an excellent gift option for March 8th or New Year. To truly please any woman, add shampoo, scrub or body milk to the grater. You can also knit children's washcloths-toys, with which you can surprise your kids. Good luck!
