This was something I made for my daughter. It is a very simple pattern for all those who would like to try. I sell my items by request only, but if you want to make and sell I share this freely. "Live Long and Prosper" my friends.

29 across and 31 down not counting first row of chain. 
It is all single crochet tying in color as indicated on the grid. 
Hook size and Gauge really don't matter.

Ford Bronco Washcloth

My husband is really big into early Ford Broncos, so I thought what the heck and dug out one of his old T-shirts with a side view and went to work. I have five strange first attempts that my children are now enjoying as bathtub washcloths. I really like the way the final pattern came out. I am a crochet by sight person, and am still learning how to write the patterns. Any advice on that is appreciated. I do sell my creations, but am always willing to share. This is my first post, but there will be many now to follow.
