(disclaimer: I don't knit; it's on my long list of things to learn.) But are you knitters and crocheters really able to use something so pretty as a dishcloth?
I do! I love knitted dishcloths for washing dishes, and the smaller/lighter ones for spoiling myself in the shower! I'll not go back to terrycloth ones any time soon.
That is why I taught myself crochet and knitting so I could make dishcloths to use (could not find them anywhere.... )
Some of my friends and family I gave them to dont want to use them they are to pretty... I said that is what makes doing dishes easier a pretty dishcloth.... I can always make more...
yep - you leave one on and turn. Then slip the first stitch of the next row -- each row you leave one more stitch on before you turn. . . so each row you are knitting gets shorter and shorter, until you get to row 24, when you knit all the stitches you'd skipped.
~Oh it's so pretty! I haven't progressed past the simple Grandma's pattern but I want to try this one.
Guess I'll have to watch some more videos.
Knitted dishcloths are the best. Nothing works better or feels so nice to use. :thumb: ~
On the one row, you cast on a stitch, then immediately bind it off- that forms the picot.
On the other row, you slip the first stitch (that pulls the picot more to a point), then knit one stitch - then yarn over (this forms the lacy, open portion) and then knit the next 2 stitches together (so you end up with the same amount of stitches in the row)
