Free Crochet Pattern--Easy Washcloth/Dishcloth

We're doing washcloths for the CAL/KAL that I created over on Ravelry so I thought I'd take a stab at one since I hadn't found a nice, quick, simple pattern in half double crochet (so far).

EASY WASHCLOTH



Terms Used:
ss= slipstitch
st= stitch
sc= single crochet
hdc=half double crochet

G Hook (Or preferred hook size)
Cotton Yarn  (I used "I Love This Cotton")


Ch 22
hdc in 3rd ch from hook and 1 hdc in each st across
ch 2
turn
*1 hdc in each st across
ch 2
turn*
Repeat from * for 13-14 rows (until desired size)

ch 1 and  sc around all edges of the cloth, fudging as you go. Do 3 sc in each corner for a more rounded appearance.

OPTIONAL:
At last corner (meeting where you started) ch 20 and ss into same corner to make a hanging loop for the cloth. ss into next st for security , finish off and weave in ends.
