Image of Dish Cloth
This washcloth/dishcloth is a great beginner project that can be used for years. So much nicer and thicker than store-bought dishrags!

GAUGE:

20 sts = 4 inches (10 cm) in pattern. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Dish Cloth Reviewed by Alexandria Powell on 2010-09-09 *****
This is a terrific washcloth and will indeed last for years. It always gives me a little smile to pull that one out from all the others. So, this makes a good gift and also can be knit up in fun colors. It's the pattern I go back and look for often.
