How To: Seed Stitch
Crochet Stitches Tutorial
1single crochet stitch and 1Half double crochet stitch,this makes a denser fabric for a lovely Dish cloth. Also, I do not work the two stitches in the same stitch -- 1sc in first stitch, 1hdc in next --
Hopefully, I haven't confused you too much.

- Awesome. Glad you were able to find what you were looking for. Tighter weave crochet fabric makes it so you can really reuse the dishcloths over and over again.

- How about a pattern for crocheting the loop to hang a dish towel in the kitchen. I've seen these and they usually fasten with a button.

- I will put that on my squidoo topics list. Are you speaking of the kitchen towel tops or just the little loop on the end of the dish cloth so you can hang it? I see it might be the kitchen towel top you are referring to - Craftyville has a lens that has a video tutorial for this http://www.squidoo.com/crochet-towel-topper-patterns Hope that helps.

- It really isn't. It is only two stitches - single crochet and half double [you could also do a double crochet] and that is it. Repeat throughout the entire piece. Hope you find the time to learn - thanks for stopping by.

- looks just about like the pattern that I use to crochet the ones I make.
I don't have any lenses that are dedicated to just crochet--darn it.

- Maybe you should start one? Squidoo always has room for more lensmasters - especially ones who are crafty with yarn
