The Every-Cloth

September 30, 2026 By Beatrice Ryan Designs Leave a Comment

The Every-Cloth Crochet Pattern – The ultimate round, multiuse kitchen dishcloth, potholder, trivet, and floor cloth. Double Thick – Double Sided!

Make sure to add this to your RAVELRY favorites and queue for easy access… Click Here!

The Every-Cloth: Free crochet pattern, infinite uses around the home.

Meet The Every-Cloth, a classic, durable round crochet pattern designed for ultimate multiuse functionality. Thick enough to protect your countertops as a trivet or shield your hands as a potholder, yet flexible and textured enough to serve as an everyday kitchen dishcloth or a heavy-duty floor cleaning cloth.

Ditch the disposable sponges and paper towels. Whether you need to scrub a pan, handle a hot cast-iron skillet, or wipe down the floors, this seamless circle is designed to tackle it all.

Pattern Highlights:

Shape: Ergonomic round design that is easy to hold, holds its shape in the wash, and looks beautiful on display.
Multiuse Design: Transitions seamlessly from a heat-resistant potholder to a rugged cleaning cloth.
Eco-Friendly: A fast, functional stash-buster perfect for creating a zero-waste home or gifting to friends.
Skill Level: Advanced Beginner / Easy.
Stitching: Just single crochet(and one row of half double crochet)!

Are you ready to make this easy and fun crochet pattern… Simple row repeat, no seams, quick to make!

You can make them in any color scheme or even as a bonus… I have provided instructions for this adorable EVERY-CLOTH PUMPKIN at the bottom of the instructions!

Flat on one side and a fun, flower-like pattern on the other side!! 8″ across and 1/2″ thick

Materials:

Cotton Yarn – 140 yard. I used Hobby Lobby I Cotton for the solid color ones and Hobby Lobby Crafters Secret Cotton for the pumpkin

Hook – Size G

Place marker, scissors and yarn needle

Stitches: US Terms

Ch – Chain
St – Stitch
Sc – Single Crochet
Hdc – Half Double Crochet
Inc – Increase
Dec – Decrease

*Tips – You will work in continuous sc rounds without joining for most of this project to avoid the way joining may look. It works best if you place a marker in the first stitch every time you come to the beginning of the round so you can identify where you start the next round. If you prefer to join each round that is makers option.

Instructions:

Round 1: Leaving a 12″ tail, Ch 2, 6 sc in 2nd ch from hook, no join(you now will work in continuous stitching, placing marker in 1st st and moving it each round). = 6 sc

Round 2: 2 sc in each stitch around. = 12 sc

Round 3: *Sc in st, 2 sc in next st*, repeat *to* around. = 18 sc

Round 4: *Sc in 2 sts, 2 sc in next st*, repeat *to* around. = 24 sc

Round 5: *Inc in st, sc in next 3 sts*, repeat *to* around. = 30 sc

Round 6: Sc in 2 sts, *inc in next st, sc in next 4 sts*, repeat *to* around to last 2 sts, sc in last 2 sts. = 36 sc

Round 7: *sc in 5 sts, inc in next st, repeat *to* around. = 42 sc

Round 8: Sc in 3 sts, *inc in next st, sc in next 6 sts*, repeat *to* around to last 3 sts, sc in last 3 sts. = 48 sc

Round 9: *Inc in next st, sc in next 7 sts*, repeat *to* around. = 54 sc

Round 10: Sc in 4 sts, *inc in next st, sc in next 8 sts*, repeat *to* around to last 4 sts, sc in last 4 sts. = 60 sc

Round 11: *Inc in next st, sc in next 9 sts*, repeat *to* around. = 66 sc

Round 12: Sc in 5 sts, *Inc in next st, sc in next 10 sts*, repeat *to* around to last 5 sts, sc in last 5 sts. = 72 sc

Round 13: *Inc in next st, sc in next 11 sts*, repeat *to* around. = 78 sc

Round 14: Sc in 6 sts, *inc in next st, sc in next 12 sts*, repeat *to* around to last 6 sts, sc in last 6 sts. JOIN. = 84 sc

Round 15: Ch 1, hdc in each st around, join to top of 1st hdc. = 84 hdc

Rounds 16-25: Continuous sc in each st around, moving marker up in 1st sc each round. = 84 sc

Round 26: *Sc in 12 sts, dec over next 2 sts*, repeat *to* around. = 78 sc

Round 27: Sc in 6 sts, *dec over next 2 sts, sc in next 11 sts*, repeat *to* around to last 5 sts, sc in last 5 sts. =72 sc

Round 28: *Sc in 10 sts, dec over next 2 sts*, repeat *to* around. = 66 sc

Round 29: Sc in 4 sts, *dec over next 2 sts, sc in next 9 sts*, repeat *to* around to last 5 sts, sc in last 5 sts. = 60 sc

Finish of leaving 12″ tail

Using a yarn needle, weave tail thru each st of round 29 and draw closed tightly(you will still have a small opening), going in the opposite directions, weave tail thru center again and pull closed tightly(this should close center.

Pick up 1st tail from round 1 and bring thru centers to meet the tail of round 29, tie them together securely making sure the bottom and top of the circle are together. Weave tails in.

The row of hdc should be on the outer rim of the circle. Gently pull circle to stretch and make it lay flat. The top should look similar to a circle.

FOR THE PUMPKIN

Repeat pattern using orange cotton yarn for rounds 1-26, change to brown for rounds 27-29. For the tail at the end or round 29, leave it a longer at approx. 2 yards to make the stem.

Pick up 1st tail from round 1 and bring thru centers to meet the tail of round 29, tie them together securely making sure the bottom and top of the circle are together.

STEM: Using the longer brown tail, ch 9, starting in 2nd ch from hook make 3 sc in each of the next 7 chs leaving last ch unworked. Secure the tails once more by tying the 2 tails together and weave them in.

Congratulations!!!! You now have an Every Cloth and/or very cute Pumpkin Cloth!!!

Eye Of The Storm Afghan CAL Week 9

September 27, 2026 By Beatrice Ryan Designs Leave a Comment

Here we are… Eye of the Storm Afghan CAL Week 9… Getting close to the final count down! 2 more squares done… 6 more to go!

Week 9 squares are once again a total surprise… Love the colors of these, and the random yarn color drawing each week is so fun!

Each week when I randomly draw 6 colors from my 12 color palette, I am always surprised how they turn out!

I hope if you aren’t making this crochet along, you are following along… You will find the schedule and details below if you want to get started… So easy to keep up each week… Just 1 or 2 squares a week depending on the size afghan you want!

You can make this afghan at any time… Use your scrap yarn or plan you colors!

If you are seeing The Eye of the Storm CALfor the first time… This is a Crochet Along that goes for a total of 15 weeks… You can choose how many squares you want to make and the size of your project… You will make 1 or 2 squares per week depending on what you choose. I am making the large afghan with 24 squares… 4 across x 6 down. Each square is 12″ x 12″, so my approximate size will be 56″ x 80″ with the joining and border.

Below are my first 18 of the 24 Eye of the storm squares for the first 9 weeks!….

I’m not quite sure of my final layout yet… I may place them in the order I made them or move them all around!

Here is a brief bit of info about this Crochet Along ~

Each block is approximately 12″ x 12″. Then there is joining allowance and the border. The border will be approximately 6 total inches and joining is just a couple of extra inches.

Blocks

3 x 4 (12 blocks) Afghan 44″ x 56″ Make 1 Block Per Week
3 x 5 (15 blocks) Afghan 44″ x 68″ Make 2 Blocks This Week
4 x 5 (20 blocks) Afghan 56″ x 68″ Make 2 Blocks This Week
4 x 6 (24 blocks) Afghan 56″ x 80″ Make 2 Blocks This Week… Mine!!!

Above are this weeks squares and the yarn I used… Love this week!

I have chosen to make mine in the whimsical chaos style! What is that? I purchased yarn kits with 12 colors of Red Heart Super Saver that all go together on Amazon. I made a small card for each color(see my pics) and for each square I am randomly drawing 6 cards. I make the square in the order of how I pulled the card for A, B, C, D, E and F colors.

I purchased this yarn kit(4 of them) from Amazon for my CAL Afghan… Click here if you want to see this yarn on Amazon
