Knitting More Dishcloths…

ByJoy Kincaid Updated This post may contain affiliate links. Please read our disclosure policy.
Maybe it’s time to branch out to a new pattern…I just keep knitting these dishcloths!  They are so easy and “mindless” that I can work on them anywhere and they still turn out just fine.  Most of these were made while driving (I wasn’t the one driving!) or while watching a movie.  I’m almost finished reading The Mom Walk.  It’s been a very encouraging read.  Full of grace for moms.

  1. I love this pattern; I start out with three stitches (it makes for a sharper corner). But now that my eyesight is failing, it’s not as easy to knit anymore.

    1. It’s my favorite pattern to knit! I’ve never tried it with 3 stitches–I’ll have to try that next time.

  2. Thank you! This is one if my very favorite all time patterns. With all of us being in lock down, what a great time to start making gifts for family and friends.

    1. Hi Lori! So glad it was helpful! And I agree, this is the perfect time to work on handmade gifts. I just started working on a new one, too!

  3. I love the pattern but I always end up using a size 5 and do up to 65 stitches. Wondering if I’d have too much gapping if I too used a size 9.

    1. I’m not sure. I always just make the pattern as written. I’ve used size 5 and size 9 needles (following the pattern), and both turned out well.

  6. Hello, Marie!

    Thank you so much for letting me know that you like the pattern! I didn't create it (it seems to be a public-domain type of pattern, handed down from one knitter to another through the years), but I do love it, too.

    Happy knitting! 🙂

  7. I'm still knitting them also! I started when you wrote your first post on this topic! Your version of this basic dishcloth pattern is the best! I have tried more complicated patterns, but it is, after all, a dishcloth, why complicate things? They are meant to be well used :o) They do make wonderful gifts. Blessings, Marie
