This lovely pastel Stained Glass Dishcloth is sure to be a well-loved project for crochet fans of all skill levels. Great for the DIY chef and baker, this dishcloth is worked up in a simple half-double crochet pattern...and since it calls for multi-colored yarn, you can create lovely color combinations without having to change yarn colors. Even if you have a variety of yarn scraps that you're looking to use up, this pattern is great for helping you clear out your stash an make room for new yarn!
