Crochet Mitered Dishcloths
These dishcloths may have been conceived in the 1940s, bus this mitered technique is contemporary. When choosing your yarn, keep in mind that the multi-colored stripes will stand out more clearly if the solid color background does not appear within the multi-color yarn. We love the way the ridges help rub dried food off the dishes.

A tattigg shuttle is not required for this project because each length of cord is fairly short to cover each ring. A magnetic clasp provides a nice "hidden" closure for this funky 6 os style bracelet.
