DW Logo Washcloth

dw logo washcloth

Big blue box, small blue cloth. Vworp vworp vworp sounds not included.

Materials

Worsted weight cotton (sample was made with Lion Brand Kitchen Cotton in Morning Glory Blue (108)), about 60 yds

Needles that give you a gauge of 5 st/in. This is if you want to make a standard 9" cloth. If not, use needles that give you a fabric you like with the yarn you use. (The sample was made using US4/3.5mm.)

Yarn needle for weaving in ends

Please note:

  • The graph includes all rows.
  • The pattern is worked primarily on the wrong side, with the exception of the light at the top. That's reverse stockinette, not garter, so you'll need to purl on those right side rows.
  • The middle section (rows 16-46) is repetitive. When you have 16 garter ridges in the uprights of the D, the next garter ridge will be the start of the top piece.
