While I am not generally a knitter, I have discovered this pattern and actually knit several dishcloths from it. I have a hard time reading the page (black links on dark gray), and every time I Google the pattern I have a hard time finding it so I am pasting it here to keep it handy. This pattern was written up by Samantha and it is NOT mine. I claim NO credit or anything else. I made a couple of edits to the pattern but no changes to the actual knitting-I just added each row because when I print it off I like to mark what row I'm on and with all the even numbered rows missing I can't keep track of where I am. I will point out here that I have used plain old kitchen cotton and a pair of size 8 circulars and done well with this. Here goes!
