CRAFT PROJECT
Dish Towel With Crochet Top
The towels used in this project were purchased at Wal-Mart for a dollar each. Choose ones that duplicate the picture/pattern on both the top and bottom half of the towel. That way, when the towels that you purchased are cut in half, you'll have two identical towels.
Materials:
- 1/2 skein yarn (completes two towels)
- button
- size "H" crochet hook
- sewing needle and thread
- awl (or similar sharp object)
Instructions:
Cut the dish towel in half (Fig 1). Fold over the cut edge 1/4" and stitch in place, like a single fold hem. Using an awl - or something similar - punch holes 3/8" apart all the way across. (Fig. 2).
SC over the hem all across the towel placing a sc in each hole that you created.
Row 1 - ch 3, dc in each sc across
Row 2 - ch 3, dc in next dc, skip next dc, dc in next 2 dc, skip next dc, all the way across
Row 3 - ch 3, skip 1 dc, dc in next dc, all the way across
Row 4 - repeat Row 3
Row 5 - ch 3 (counts as first dc) and 6 dc, all evenly spaced (a total of 7 dc evenly spaced across the row)
Row 6 - ch 3, dc in each dc
Row 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 - repeat Row 6
Row 12 - ch 3, dc in next 2 dc, ch 1, skip 1 dc and dc in next 2 dc (button hole made)
Row 13 - ch 3, dc in next 2 dc, dc in ch 1 space, dc in next 3 dc.
Fasten off yarn. Sew on button.
