So I thought I'd start making some turkish washcloths to put up on etsy since it entwines with my whole mainly "turkish" themed items! So here they are, just 2 for now, but more to come. I really like the pink and white one, I've included an early photo when I'd just got into it. Surprisingly these aren't that quick to whip up, the stitch I haven't seen anywhere BUT turkish style crochet, I know its called fistik ilmegi in turkish however I'm unsure about the name in English. I made one of these about 3 months ago and I swear by it in the shower. Its so relaxing and gives exfoliation without being tough and abrasive. Anyway these babies are going up on Etsy. Enjoy.

Many happy wishes for you and your family aswel for the new year.
looks like puff stitch ( body of work) and solomon's knot (aka as lovers knot) corner stitches
I looked it up and you're right wendy, however this puff stitch is joined differently. This prevents the "holes" between joined stitches becoming too big.
