I moved from Canada to England in August 2023 and this was the first dishcloth I knit in my new home, or “flat”. The dishcloth is worked on straight needles in a slip-stitch honeycomb pattern which looks pretty and is also good for scrubbing the tough spots! The finished product is 20cm (8 in) x 20 cm (8in). The size before blocking is a bit smaller but the design really stretches out once blocked so don’t worry if you think your knitting looks too small on the needles!

In pattern stitch using 4.0MM (US 6) needles, after blocking.
