Crochet Star stitch wash/dishcloth

The Star stitch makes a beautiful and textured wash/dishcloth, perfect for every day use. At the beginning this stitch may seem a little bit difficult, but actually is very easy, just be patient and you’ll see how beautiful it is and I’m sure you will enjoy this project.

For my textured wash/dishcloth I’ve used 50 g organic cotton  and a 4 mm hook.

For this project I recommend this yarn:
Superior quality cotton made from 100% organic cotton, natural and antibacterial.

If you prefer an acrylic yarn I recommend this antibacterial acrylic, here you can find the yarn in your favorite color:  http://bit.ly/3gX8Rzo
