Yarn: Lily's Sugar N'Cream is shown but can be made in any worsted weight or non-worsted weight. I just suggest that you change the hook size if you have trouble getting the hook into the stitches.
Gauge: Not important
Hook size: US G/4.00 mm
Ch20 loosely
Rows:
turn and ch2, dc into 3rd stitch and ever remaining stitch.
Repeat until desired size.
I made this pattern for a class I am teaching and since everyone seems to copyright their stuff so you have to ask permission and pay them to use their pattern in a class, I just made up my own!

Those look great and just FYI, if you ever want to use any of the patterns I have for free on my pattern blog (they are mostly knitted, but one crochet so far) you go right ahead, no need to ask, if they are free that means they can be used by who ever when ever for what ever if you ask me. How long have you been teaching classes?
I'm pretty new to crochet and have been looking for a pattern like this. What do you have to do to "turn"? I've tried several things and am not getting it.
Thanks!

to turn means to flip the fabric so you see the other side.
hi i'm new at crochet and did make some ok dishcloths. i stopped for awhile and now i end up going round and squiggly? my turn is not right but i can't see what i'm doing wrong. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely Fiona
Do you have a photo somewhere? I can't tell what is wrong unless I see it.
I tried to learn to crochet and just can't seem to get it right. It starts out ok but soon my pieces all look they are smiling instead of being straight....what am I doing wrong?
I don't know. I am a "must see it to know what is wrong" sort of person. I can't tell from the description.
Weber, it sounds like you are dropping stitches as you go. Try counting the number of stitches on your first row vs. the number in the last row you made and I'll bet you find there are fewer. This commonly happens on the turn but depends on what stitch(es) you are using.
Weber could also be tightening stitches. If you're not dropping any, try switching to a larger hook, or relax your pull on the thread.
I think the problem most people have when turning is you have to skip the first stitch when you start a new row. For example, when you chain three and start your next row, don't stitch in the first one. Your chain three will take the place of that one. Start in the second available stitch. I have made this mistake in my early days of crocheting. Always make a habit of counting your stiches to make sure you are doing the same each row. Hope this helps
