A Knit Turkey Dishcloth Might Make Cleanup More Fun

November 18, by Sarah White. Leave a Comment

turkey knit dishclothThe worst thing to me about big holiday meals is cleaning up after. There are always more dishes than can possibly fit in the dishwasher (or you used the good china that can’t be washed in the machine), not to mention serving platters that are too big for the machine, all the pots and pans…

Maybe having a novelty dishcloth would make some of the cleaning a little more fun?

I don’t know. But the Turkey Day Dishcloth from One Crafty Mama might bring a little smile to your face while you’re elbows-deep in suds.

Dishcloths are generally quick and easy, finish in a weekend or a couple of evenings kinds of projects, and this one is even better because the textured design is simply worked in Garter Stitch on a field of Stockinette and the instructions are written out row by row, no chart-reading required.

This is a great choice for a newer knitter who wants to make something a little more involved but still perfectly easy, or for a knitter with more experience to whip up in a flash.

Why use dishcloths? Dishcloths are re-useable and save on kitchen waste. Most dishcloths are made using cotton yarn and can be thrown into the washing machine when dirty. This makes them very hygienic, especially when compared to kitchen sponges, which sit on the sinks for days if not weeks.  Another great thing about dishcloths is when it comes to knitting the knit up quickly and are great for gift giving. Everyone needs a dishcloth.  For gifting, It’s not something that has to be in fashion or a certain colour for the recipient to like it, though there are so many great dishcloth pattern designs out there.

Looking for Thanksgiving projects to knit? Check out these patterns we found on Etsy.
