𧽠Spring clean with these 5 washcloth pattern
We're still getting things cleaned and organized around the Yarnist office so we thought what better to knit than some washcloths?
They're fast, a great way to practice new techniques, help use up your stash, and make great gifts!
Here are a few of our favorite patterns...
βTin Ceiling Washcloth + Hand Towel by Sandi Rosner
Why we love it: A good washcloth has a lot of texture, and this not only has tons of that, it also comes in multiple sizes!
β
βBallband Dishcloth by Kay Gardiner and Ann Shayne
Why we love it: This colorful dishcloth uses a mosaic brick stitch to create a beautiful pattern.
β
βSea Stars by Romi Hill
Why we love it: These pretty little things use German short rows for their unique shaping. Bet you won't be able to make just one!
β
βPractical Little Heart by Heidi Kirrmaier
Why we love it: Another project with some unique shaping, this one will steal your heart. π
β
βLeafy Washcloth by Megan Goodacre
Why we love it: Simple and elegant, this leaf inspired washcloth just FEELS organic.

Basketweave Stitch
I love this stitch. But what's love got to do with it?β
I just think its cool how knits and purls can create textures like this.
If you want to make your own washcloth, this is a great stitch for that.
