Having been dishwasher-less for nearly a year, I’ve become rather picky about my dishcloths. Adding in a personal goal to become a better knitter, I’ve started making my own. This pattern is a great refresher and is great for beginners. They’re so straightforward and quick, I can knit one in less than an hour (which is usually the downtime I have during naps). Plus, you can customize the size for larger dishcloths or smaller for face washcloths.
You’ll Need:
1 skein cotton yarn
Knitting needles (the larger the size, the larger the cloth will be with less stitches)
Yarn needle to finish off
K-knit
YO-Yarn over
K2tog-Knit two together
Cast on 4 stitches
Increasing section: K2, YO, K to end
Decreasing section: K1, K2tog, YO, K2tog, K to end, down to 4 stitches
Bind off and finish loose ends
Squeaky clean! |
