Official Patterns

The Official Pattern of Dish Rag Tag: the Sequel is complete. When I was searching (read: wracking my brain) for the inspiration for this pattern, I asked myself: What do I like in a dish cloth?

Seed Stitch!

So that’s what you get. To make the Official Dish Rag, you need to be able to cast on, bind off, knit, purl and read a pattern. Two stitch markers are helpful, but not required if you have a lot of confidence. The gauge is roughly 4 stitches to an inch in seed stitch (I used US6 needles) – the finished dish cloth should be between 8 and 9 inches square.

When the race is over, I’ll put the pattern on my patterns page.

    It looks great – although I love the seed stitch it will slow me down because I am a thrower – but I’m willing to stay up all night LOL.

    Oh, Emily! I missed the whole thing! Well, if you need a sub for a dropout, I’d be glad to help out. I love Dishrag tag! Are we going to do an Autumn Sock or do you think it’s too much for you right now?

    Oy. The pattern looks lovely. But I hate purling so much. I better practice before it starts so I don’t let my team down!
