Another breeze of a knit. Easy and fast. This was done while the children were couch-jumping and trying their best to make off with my pattern book.
This is a reversible seeded rib.
I love the scrunchiness of the ribbing and how easy it is to memorize the pattern so I can knit this anywhere.
A Very Seedy Dishcloth
Yarn: cotton worsted, like Lily Sugar ‘n Cream
Needles: US size 6, some knitters use size 7 for their dishcloths
Cast on 29 sts.
Rows 1-3: Knit all.

Repeat rows 4 & 5, nineteen times, or until desired length.
Knit all three more rows.
Cast off, cut yarn, and weave in ends.
Love this pattern! Thanks for a free and easy to knit discloth. Crocheting is easier for me to do, but I can knit also. These little dishcloths make wonderful presents and are quick to work up.
I really have to learn to knit!
Thank you! I was looking for something quick to help fill up some Xmas boxes and this looks perfect.
I love all the knit patterns you put up for us! Thank you so much! Knit dishcloths are my comfort knitting!
keep the dishcloths coming!!
I just fell in love with this pattern and just kept on knitting and knitting……now I have a beautiful cotton scarf! Thank you!!!
Stacy–So cool! Thanks for letting me know!
Why oh why do I have to waste 8 pages of paper to print a pattern that would easly fit on 1 page? Please don’t do that.
Bev–Do what we always do. Select and copy only the text you want reproduced and paste it to a word processing document. I can get several patterns on one page this way.
I make the same thing only I crochet them so if you don’t know how to knit you can crochet if you know how to do that. I have also made hand towels for the kitchen by making the pattern wider and longer.
RE Seedy Disshcloth – would appreicate if you’d clarify on last instructions:KNIT All three more rows- Does that mean to knit 3 more rows or knit rows 1 -3, 4 & 5?
Bali–Just knit three more knit rows to wrap it up.
I love this dishcloth pattern and would like to write about making them for Christmas presents in my blog. May I post a link to your pattern in my blog?
Susan–Thank you and yes that would be perfectly fine.
Was wondering if anyone knows the stitch pattern so that I can make this dish cloth wider? Pattern calls for 29 cast on stitches, is it just needing to be an odd number of cast on?
Heather, I was wondering the same thing. How many stitches are used for the border? I want to make this in a DK weight yarn.
Thanks!
I would like this on a blankets what’s the multiple for a blanket
