Free "A Little Bit of Luck" Dishcloth Pattern Released for March CAL

Amy Ramnarine of The Stitchin' Mommy published the "A Little Bit of Luck Dishcloth" on March 8 as the March installment of the 2026 Dishcloth of the Month CAL, a year-long crochet-along she co-organizes with Rhondda. The pattern is free on The Stitchin' Mommy blog, and for a limited time, a free PDF version is also available through Ramnarine's Ravelry shop. An ad-free PDF is available for purchase as a digital download for those who want a permanent copy.

The pattern is rated intermediate and comes in four sizes. Ravelry describes it as "quick to work up" with a "fantastic texture" and notes it is "perfectly green," making it a well-timed addition to the CAL calendar. Full materials lists and step-by-step instructions are included on the blog post itself.

The 2026 Dishcloth of the Month CAL is shaping up to be an ambitious undertaking. Ramnarine wrote that she and Rhondda, "along with our Guest Designers, are so excited to bring you 36 fun and functional dishcloths this year," meaning a new pattern drops every single week across the calendar. The March contribution is this pattern, with the series drawing significant Ravelry engagement: the A Little Bit of Luck Dishcloth has logged 2,975 project pages and been stashed 5,585 times on the platform.

Participation in the CAL is straightforward. Each pattern post on The Stitchin' Mommy blog includes a direct Ravelry link so makers can log their own project pages. Rhondda has published a tutorial walking through how to add projects to Ravelry for anyone new to that workflow. On Instagram, finished makes can be shared by tagging @thestitchinmommy and @oombawkadesigncrochet with the hashtag #DishclothCAL. Two Facebook communities, the Crochet With Us Group and The Stitchin' Mommy Crochet Community, are open for questions, progress sharing, and pattern help throughout the CAL.

Ramnarine has been running her blog since 2012, originally as a vehicle for her crochet business before expanding into daily life content covering crafts, recipes, and knitting alongside her design work. The Dishcloth of the Month CAL has been part of her repertoire for years; she contributed the Nubby Scrubby Color Block Washcloth to a 2019 edition of the series, demonstrating the CAL's long run in the community.

With 35 more patterns still to come before the year is out, the limited-time free PDF offer on A Little Bit of Luck is worth grabbing sooner rather than later.
