In my scrolling through Pinterest the other day, I saw a pin of a cute butterfly washcloth knitting pattern that led me to a treasure trove of dishcloth knitting patterns.
The collection at Designs by Emily features more than 20 patterns with simple designs worked into a Stockinette Stitch background.
The Stockinette Stitch is a classic knitting stitch that creates a smooth, even surface on one side of the fabric and a bumpy, textured surface on the other. It’s a great stitch to use for dishcloths because it’s durable and absorbent. The simple designs worked into the Stockinette Stitch background are a nice touch that add some visual interest to the dishcloths. The collection of over 20 patterns offered by Designs by Emily is a great resource for knitters looking for dishcloth patterns, and with a variety of designs, knitters will have many options to choose from.
There are buildings such as a schoolhouse and a barn, simple shapes like hearts and stars, and animals like ladybugs and spiders.
This is a great little collection if you love knit washcloths, and they’re all free PDF downloads.
