I've been making my own dishcloths for years (mind you, not as fancy) and if nothing else i find that they last much longer than shop bought ones!!!!

Great! Simple & quick to knit up. Note: yfwd = yo. I used size 8 needles and added one more row of knit at the end to even out the pattern, since the first 2 rows were knit, I wanted to end in 2 rows of knit. Also, bind off loosely.

I have been looking for some different patterns for dishcloths as I make them for my daughter.
