Tunisian Moss Stitch Washcloth

By: Sarah Ruane from Ned and Mimi
Tunisian Moss Stitch Washcloth

"This pattern combines two basic Tunisian stitches to create a gorgeous variation on the Tunisian moss stitch, which I am calling the extended Tunisian moss stitch. In the traditional knit moss stitch pattern, you alternate between knit and purl stitches, changing up the order every two rows. For this pattern, I made just a few little changes to better suit Tunisian crochet stitches: I used the Tunisian knit stitch (Tks), but instead of using the Tunisian purl stitch, I opted for the Tunisian reverse stitch (Trs). This stitch creates a very similar effect to the Tunisian purl stitch, but it is a little less bulky, and it is easier to work (in my opinion!). Additionally, I changed the order of the stitches every three rows instead of two. The extended Tunisian moss stitch is a delightful and versatile pattern that yields a beautifully textured fabric with minimal curling. This dishcloth project not only helps you practice and refine your Tunisian crochet skills but also results in a practical, attractive addition to your kitchen. Enjoy the process of creating this lovely dishcloth and mastering the extended Tunisian moss stitch!"
