I saw this one on Lee Meredith’s Instagram page and just had to share it.
She stitched up a spider web dishcloth, which is available at Knit Picks, and I think it would be super fun to make and use this time of year.
The web is formed by making long floats of yarn that get twisted into the design to hold them in place. The pattern is charted but she also writes part of it out to get you started.

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.
