So, this is what I was in the process of making when I made the
Face cleansing pads. I was going for a dishcloth. I love the texture on this dish cloth, it makes some of the scrubbing easier!
When I finished the first one, my daughter asked to use the new "washcloth" in her bath. Huh, what do you know, 2 projects in one! I am going to make some cute girly colored ones for her and some more boyish colors for my son.
The finished size is approx 7 inches. You can easily make this as large as you would like. Just keep increasing the number of stitches (by 1) between your increases, for each additional row.

Round Dishcloth/washcloth
What you will need:
G hook

Abbreviations
ch-chain
St/st’s-stitch/stitches
Hdc-half double crochet
For rounds 2-? Place your stitch marker in the first stitch of each round. (I left a long tail from my magic circle and placed that in my first stitch of each round)
Start with Magic circle. (or you can ch 2 and work in the second ch from the hook)
Round 1: ch 1, 10 hdc into circle. Join with first hdc. (10hdc)
You will be working in the 3rd loop of each stitch for the rest of the rounds.
The third loop is located just behind the second loop of the stitch.
