Hello and welcome back to my blog! Today I am sharing the Seed Stitch Stripe Dishcloth Pattern. It’s been a while since I have shared a knitting pattern, so I thought it would be fun to make a new dishcloth! This pattern is a fresh and updated take on my original Seed Stitch Dishcloth – if you haven’t tried this pattern yet be sure to check it out!
This dishcloth works up fairly quickly and is beginner friendly – if you know how to complete the knit and purl stitch, you will be all set!
So… without further ado, lets get started!
A printable version of this pattern is available for purchase here.
