Oh dear. You started the Crochet Along Afghan and only got a few squares done. Now what do you do with them?! Make them into Christmas-gift Dishcloths -- that IS what you meant to do all along, right?
This is a quick and easy gift to put together even if you don't already have some afghan-less squares waiting around. Pick a nine-inch square or two from the Afghan Sampler -- they hook up quickly -- and then package it as a dishcloth with this free printable rhyming gift tag!

| Crocheted to clean your dishes, with extra love and Christmas wishes! |
STEP ONE: Download the free PDF printable with dotted cut lines here. (Or go here for the same tag without printed cut lines.) Print it on colored card stock and cut it into three tags.
STEP TWO: Line up one tag so the blank end is flush with the side of a dishcloth, like so...
STEP THREE: Flip the tag and dishcloth over and start rolling.
STEP FOUR: Secure the end with a small piece of clear tape.
STEP FIVE: Tie a pretty ribbon around the middle. You're done!
