Having been dishwasher-less for nearly a year, I’ve become rather picky about my dishcloths.  Adding in a personal goal to become a better knitter, I’ve started making my own.  This pattern is a great refresher and is great for beginners.  They’re so straightforward and quick, I can knit one in less than an hour (which is usually the downtime I have during naps).  Plus, you can customize the size for larger dishcloths or smaller for face washcloths.

Though dishcloths can’t wash for you, they make easy work of a sink brimming with dirty dishes.
