Spider Stitch Washcloth
"Learn how to do the spider stitch (also known as the “single crochet v stitch”) with this free crochet pattern with tutorial video! You only need to know two basic crochet stitches – chains and single crochets – so it's easy for everyone. If you're unsure about stitch placement, grab some stitch markers for help. This stitch creates a thick fabric, which is great for dishcloths. The pattern is written for two sizes – Dishcloth and Tea Towel – and tells you how to adjust it for any size you want. One cool thing about this stitch is that it is reversible. So, the stitch perfect for projects where you need the front and back to match. "
