Instructions
Row 1: Ch 3, *dc in 3rd ch from hook, ch 3. Repeat from * till you have 9"bumps". Then turn, make sure the ch3's are at the top of the row. This is what you will crochet onthroughout the project.

Row 2: *Ch3, dc in 3rd ch from hook, Scin center of ch3 of next bump. See picture for detail asto where to place the hook. Rep from * across. Ch2, sc inlast ch which is actually the very first ch you made atthe very beginning of project. Turn.

Row 3: This is the pattern row. *Ch3, dcin 3rd ch from hook, sc in center of ch3 of next bump.Rep from * accross ending with a sc in last bump. Turn.Repeat this row throughout dishcloth.

This produces a delicate looking edge all the way around.You may want to add a row of sc all the way around togive it a finished look. I did in the example. If you do,work (2 sc, ch1, 2 sc) in eachcorner, 2 sc in each row onthe left and right sides and 2 sc in each bump on thebottom and top.

Fasten off and weave ends into work.

Random Quick Tip!

Crafting Journal
Have you ever considered keeping a journal of all the major projects you make?? You could take pictures of the item, then put them into a photo album with the information about the item. The information to write down would be, the name of the pattern, where the pattern came from, the list of materials used in the project, how long it took to make, the date you started the project and when you finised it, and then who you gave it to and when. And the special occasion as to why it was given. If you keep all this information, then future generations will have a better sense of who you were. Keep it with the family geaneology information. I may start to do this myself for significant projects that I make and give.
