If you can cast on, knit, purl,cast off and count, you can make this!

Cast on 40
Knit 5 rows
K3, P to last 3 stitches K3
knit next row
repeat last 2 rows.
Row 10 Then K3 P4 *K1 P1 until 7 stitches left then P4 k3.
K8 *P1 K1 until 7 stitches left. K7.
K3 P5 *K1 P1 until 7 stitches left P4 K3.
Row 13 K7 *P1 K1 until 8 stitches remain. K8.
Repeat rows 10 -13 9 times.
K3 P until last 3, K3
K across.
Repeat last 2 rows.
Knit 4 rows
Cast off last row and weave in the ends.

This is a simple pattern that I made to help improve my own basic knitting skills. The end result is a very nice wash clothe that makes a great gift for kitchen or bath. You may not want to give them away!
I use 100% cotton yarn for these.
This is a perfect pattern for those that are just starting out in the world of knitting!

  1. I have to say, I can really appreciate the photos you take to demonstrate detail. Better than a lot of photos I see of handmade jewelry or other crafts.

  2. Thank you very much. I was actually disappointed with these photos and reluctant to use them. I had taken them at night with bad lighting and what I got for it was a deep red yarn that looks pink.
