Wheat Stitch™ Crochet Scalloped Dishtowel Holder
Keep your kitchen cute and functional with the Wheat Stitch™ Scalloped Dishtowel Holder, a quick, satisfying crochet project that turns everyday towels into something worth showing off.
This is one of those patterns that makes you feel wildly productive in under an hour. It’s practical, giftable, craft-fair friendly, and just plain FUN to stitch. The main body is worked flat in rows using my signature Wheat Stitch™, creating rich texture and beautiful stitch definition that instantly elevates a simple towel holder. Once the panel is complete, you’ll work a clean, even edging around the entire piece.
Here’s where the magic happens: the wooden rings are attached directly to the edging round — no extra sewing, no fiddly finishing, no frustration. Everything stays secure, streamlined, and exactly where it should be. To finish it off, a sweet scalloped border adds just the right amount of charm, because functional doesn’t have to mean boring.
Whether you’re making one for your own kitchen, whipping up a last-minute handmade gift, or stocking your craft fair table, this Wheat Stitch™ Scalloped Dishtowel Holder is a fast win with big payoff.
♥️ Printable gift tags are included, making this pattern extra special for gifting, care packages, or craft fairs!
A video tutorial is included to guide you every step of the way.
