Guest guest Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 Thanks for sharing! I don't know how to do this but I have a sister who does so I will pass it along to her. -- Knitted dishcloth pattern - cotton dishcloth This pattern comes from 'The complete idiot's guide to knitting and crocheting' by Barbara Breiter and Gail Diven. I know this one may be too simplistic for many of you experts, but I love this one because it is pretty and durable, not to mention easy to knit and doesn't take too much thought. Just thought I'd share! -- Difficulty: Easy - skills needed: Cast on (CO), Garter stitch (knit every row), Yarn over (YO), Bar increase, Knit two together (k2tog) Bind off in knit (BO) Size: 8.5" x 8.5" Materials: 1 ball Lily Sugar 'N Cream (color of your choice) 100% cotton 109 meters/120 yards 70 grams/2.5 ounces Needle size: 8 US (5 mm) Tapestry needle Gauge: 17.5 sts = 4" in garter stitch (knit every row) Instructions: Cast on 4 stitches. Row 1: Knit across. Row 2: Knit two stitches. In the next stitch, knit into the front and then the back of the stitch (1 bar increase made). Knit one stitch. Row 3: Knit two stitches. Yarn over (1 increase made). Knit to the end of the row. Repeat row 3 until you have 46 stitches on the needle. You have a triangle at this point, and the long edge of the triangle is on your needle. Next row: Knit one stitch, Knit two stitches together (k2tog) (1 decrease made), knit to the end of the row. Repeat this last row until 5 stitches remain on the needle. Next row: Knit two stitches, k2tog (1 decrease made), knit one stitch. Last row: Bind off the 4 stitches on the needle. Finishing: Weave ends near edge with tapestry needle. Abbreviations: BO - Bind off CO - Cast on K - Knit K2tog - Knit two together YO - yarn over Variations: You can use any yearn or guage with this kpattern. Make it larger by continuing to increase and then following the decreasing instructions. You've knit a baby afghan! Knit it larger still and you have an adult afghan. Continue to make the triangle larger and you have a bandana; just bind off the stitches when it's the size you want. Make it larger still and you have a shawl. Add fringe if you like. ~~~~ *** ~~~ *** ~~~ *** ~~~~ The Being Sick CommunityMessage Archives-/messagesChat:- Scheduled Chats at /chatBookmarks:-Add a website URL you have found useful./linksPersonal Complaints or problems:-Please contact a moderator email: -owner Subscription Details:-1) Individual email - means that every email sent to the list you receive.2) Daily Digest - sends you 25 messages in one single email for you to browse.

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2004 Report Share Posted April 25, 2004 I have knitted in years as the yarn makes my hands blead, even tying out the quilts with the yarn does... But I printed it off and will teach the girls this simple pattern, they will like this to do... Maybe they can get one done each for their Mother for Mothers day... Thanks for sharing this!
