Today I have made a very simple Dimple Washcloth Knit Pattern to share with all of you. It's pretty quick to knit up. I thought it would make a cute stocking stuffer. You can make it in any color and for any room decor. I love my homemade washcloths for my bath, but I know a lot of people use them in the kitchen, also. Be creative and enjoy.
Dimple Washcloth Knit Pattern
1 3 oz skein Sugar and Cream Yarn (any color) or any medium weight cotton yarn
Size 7 or 4.00 mm knitting needles
Pattern
Cast on 50 stitches.
Knit 1 row.
Work Pattern:
Row 1. Knit 2, (k 1, sl 1)* across to last 2 stitches, K2
Row 2. K 2, (sl 1, p 1)* across to last 2 stitches, k2
Row 3. Knit all stitches.
Row 4. Purl all stitches.
Row 5. K 2, (sl 1, K 1)* across to last 2 stitches, k2
Row 6. K 2, (p 1, sl 1)* across to last 2 stitches, K2
Row 7. k all stitches
Row 8. P all stitches
Work this pattern until the length is equal to the width. Mine is 10 1/2 x 9 1/2 inches, so it's not quite square. It doesn't have to be perfect. I ran out of yarn.
Then you will Knit the last two rows, and then bind off.
I love the way it looks, and it should hold up pretty well. The pattern makes it a little thicker, which I like. The first washcloths I made a long time ago are a little looser and I think I like the thickness better.
I hope you like this pattern. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Have a great week!
This is wonderful! I just started knitting and I have loved these handmade washcloths for doing dishes. My daughter and friend knitted me a bunch of them.Now I can make my own!

Hi Debi & Charley! I'm just popping over from the DIY Sunday Showcase Link Party. I have a couple of these marvelous washcloths, but did not have the pattern. I am so glad you posted it! I have pinned, liked and tweeted, and g+-ed. I would love it if you would drop by my site at http://www.kneadedcreations.com for a short visit! I will look forward to seeing you there!
