What a cute pumpkin dishcloth. It is two sided. the back is the same as the front. How much fun would it be to use this pumpkin dishcloth to wash your dishes this Fall and Thanksgiving season? It will fit perfectly in your hand for a time of soapy, sudsy scrubbing of your dishes. If you think the pumpkin dishcloth would be fun in your kitchen, then you will want to crochet a pumpkin pot scrubber and Candy Corn dishcloth/scrubby for a whole bundle of fun! The bundle of dishcloths would be great to give as a gift too!
I sometimes use affiliate links in my posts. This won’t cost you anything, but will help offset the cost of yarn and other supplies needed, so that I can continue bringing you crochet patterns and craft ideas. Thank you so much for your support.
Make a few pumpkin dishcloth’s for the kids to use during bath time. That will make taking a bath so much fun. Especially after a time in the pumpkin patch or a day of raking leaves.
Giving dishcloth’s as a gift seems to be a tradition in my area. You can make a collection of pumpkins, pumpkin dishcloths & pumpkin pot scrubbers. Put them in a basket, throw in a Fall themed towel or two, add a Fall bow to the basket and you have a gift for that special friend.
