Sewing Info & Tips


Materials:

  • 1 Skein 100% cotton yarn
  • Knitting needles; size 7 (4 1/2 mm)
  • Yarn needle

1) Cast on 34 stitches

2) Knit each row until your dishcloth reaches 7 inches long.

3) Cast off

4) Use a yarn needle to thread an inch or two of the loose ends back into the dishcloth then cut the remaining loose ends.

Variation:  In step #2, instead of knitting each row, work in the stockinette stitch until your dishcloth is 7" long.
