The Dipshcloth

Job type Test knit
Description

This dishcloth pattern was written for three different yarn weights and needle sizes and makes for a great stash buster. It knits up in no time and is a perfect addition to any kitchen. The pattern is mainly in garter stitch, which prevents curling and there’s hardly any purling involved. The dip stitch is simple, decorative and - best of all - great for scrubbing because of its texture!

The size of the cloth when finished - regardless of yarn weight - is approximately 12x12”. (30x30 cm) The thickness of the cloth increases together with yarn weight.
