Today’s feature is from I Live On A Farm with my new favorite knit dishcloth pattern Springtime Wash/DishCloth:

The primary pattern stitch is the twisted purl from Barbara Walker’s “A Treasury of Knitting Patterns”. I love the twisted purl stitch, because it is a truly reversible pattern. It doesn’t look the same on both sides, but the reverse side is quite attractive; it is a perfect stitch for scarfs and dish cloths for that reason. It is a very enjoyable stitch to work, so I recommend it for all of these reasons.

The finished size is 10 1/4″; the guage is 4 1/2 stitches to the inch; I used approximately 120 yards on this cloth.

I did this up with straight needles using Lily Sugar’n Cream 100% cotton yarn (Ecru)–I have piles of it left after crocheting this bag and it turned out very nice.

If you like larger dishcloths that are a bit thick, you’ll love this one.
