I found the pattern for this washcloth here, but I only cared for the first pattern so I thought I'd give a tutorial for it. It's all single crochet, but it creates a nice basket weave look that is really pretty.
Chain 32, sc in 4th chain from hook, and chain 1.
Skip next chain, sc in next chain, chain 1 and continue pattern until the end of the row. Chain 2 and turn.
For each row you'll be doing a sc, chain 1 pattern, but you'll be sc in between the sc from the previous row. Go right between the stitch under my finger in the first picture, and the stitch under my finger in the second picture.
As you're going along you should notice the upright stitches move closer together, which will form the basket pattern. Be careful not to go between these upright stitches, it will separate and not look quite right. Here's two pictures of the difference.
When you've gotten it to a square (about 24 rows total of the pattern) you'll sc all around the edge, with 3 in each corner.
