๐ŸงผWeek 9 of 46 | This Week's Featured Pattern is the Mitered Blossom Dish/Wash Cloth! ๐ŸŒธ

We’re continuing the Weekly Celebration with something fun, fresh, and oh-so-practical – the Mitered Blossom Dish/Wash Cloth Pattern! ✨

These little beauties are such a joy to make, keep, and gift. The pattern is packed full of helpful details: dozens of step-by-step photos, a shortened version for confident makers, and four video links to guide you every step of the way.

One of the best features? The clever built-in handle. After use, simply rinse and wring out your cloth, then hang it from a hook or faucet to dry. This not only keeps them smelling fresh but also helps resist germs – perfect for busy kitchens.

Crocheted in Scheepjes Catona yarn, these cloths stay vibrant and hold their colour beautifully. Yarn packs are available now at Wool Warehouse, and if you’re feeling adventurous, you could even try the full Scheepjes Catona Colour Pack to make a rainbow of cloths, find that HERE.

Whether you coordinate them to match a friend’s kitchen or pair them with a lovely soap for gifting, the Mitered Blossom Dish/Wash Cloths are a guaranteed hit. ๐Ÿ’

✨ This week only, enjoy 20% off the pattern on Etsy HERE – but hurry, the celebration ends Thursday at midnight UK time!

Happy Crocheting!

✨ Free Crochet Pattern | Chevron Infinity Scarf ✨

Looking for a cosy project that works up beautifully in any colour combination? The Chevron Infinity Scarf is a stylish classic with a modern twist. It’s bold, warm, and perfect for gift-giving (or keeping all for yourself ๐Ÿ˜‰).

 

๐Ÿงถ What You’ll Need

  • Double knitting or aran yarn in your favourite colours (Pics above I used the lovely Yarnsmiths Pebble Haze Prints).

  • A crochet hook suited to your yarn

  • Scissors and a yarn needle


๐ŸŒˆ Adding Colour Changes

Want stripes or contrast? At the end of a row, before finishing your last hdc, pull your new colour through all three loops on the hook. Ch 1, turn, and continue with your new shade.

๐ŸŽจ Colour Options

The beauty of this scarf is how versatile it is — the colour options are endless! Take a look at these samples I’ve made:

๐Ÿ‚ Lovely autumnal tones in greens, creams, and oranges 


๐ŸŽƒ Halloween-inspired neon green, purple, and black


⚫ Black, blue, grey, and tan for a classic look


๐ŸŒŠ Navy, olive, gold, and cream for an earthy palette


๐Ÿญ “Candy Crush” with pretty pinks, creams, and blues

Each one has its own charm, so don’t be afraid to mix and match your stash to create something unique!

✨ Finishing Off

When your scarf reaches the length you prefer (I like one that wraps around twice):

  • Slip stitch the two ends together.

  • For a seamless look, finish with the same colour you started.

  • Or, twist the scarf before joining for a rippled infinity effect!

And that’s it! Your cosy, chevron-striped infinity scarf is ready to wear. A quick, satisfying make that looks gorgeous in every colourway.
