Hey Friends!

Today I have a super easy fun tutorial for this oversized heart crochet washcloth. This washcloth works up in a breeze, all you need is your favorite cotton yarn, and a crochet hook.

I’ve been wanting to make a crochet heart washcloth for a long time, as I use washcloths all the time. You know, something that’s easy to whip up and doesn’t take a lot of time.

Washcloths make the cutest gift during the holidays too or when you need a gift last minute!

The inspirations for these washcloths came from a picture that my aunt had sent to my mom. She had crochet a granny square heart style blanket for her granddaughter.

After I saw the photo, I thought it would be so cute to create a heart washcloth pattern. Something modern that would look great anywhere. You could even add a metal round hook or some leather tags to the washcloth.
