Pretty Pebbles

I have three patterns to crochet for Lesson 2. This is the first one completed. I modified the assigned Pretty Pebbles Square pattern and also added a biscuit edge. I'm finding crocheting rather easy, except for the first row. I take nearly half an hour redoing it as I struggle to get the right number of stitches from the chain. Does anyone have any tips on this?

Anyway, Richard says this is the best dishcloth yet because of all the nobbly bits and the big size (19x19cm). This is the sixth dishcloth so I have one more to go! He won't like the next one as it's a basic granny square - not very manly and not textured enough. I might add a ruffle edge to it. We'll see.

This is a pretty dishcloth. What stitch did you use around the center square? Very cute.

I'm not sure what it's called. I followed this pattern and modified it:
