You can try looking online, sometimes they have yarn that isn’t in the stores.
What does 4 medium mean in relation to materials used? Thanks.
Medium weight yarn is required for this pattern and the 4 medium refers to the symbol that is on most yarn packages that are medium weight. Here is a post that will explains it in more detail: Types of Yarn and Recommended Crochet Hooks and Gauges

I am making a few of these and a couple of other washcloth patterns and giving them to my mom for Christmas. Thanks for the great pattern and idea.
Hi Rachael, I used to crochet 20 years or so ago. I copied down your pattern for the crocheted dish cloth. I do not remember how to decrease although I do have a book with pictures. I will use the book first and then if I need your assistance I will let you know. Thanks for having free patterns and offering assistance. Kathleen L.
