4 Corners Dishcloth

I finished this little beauty off in record time---

It took me part of one evening and part of one early morning. I love dishcloths with this textured construction.It is the 4 Corners Dishcloth that Abigail designed. The pattern can be found here.

I used 4.5 mm Takumi Bamboo needles, and almost a whole skein of Peaches & Cream in the Daisy Ombre colorway. It is so perfect for the sunny spring days we've been having lately.


Whenever I knit a dishcloth I always say that I'm going to knit them more often, but I seldom do. I think I forget how much I like to make them and how useful they are. This time I'm going to make an effort to remember that I really do enjoy making them.

That's a really interesting shape -- I love how the lines play.

Thanks for the pattern - it's a good one! I discovered my (forgotten) dishcloth-cotton stash, buried for the winter under warmer wool... It's about time I got it back out again. I think I have some of that exact colorway, I may have to make a twin to yours!

That one is cute. Everytime I see this pattern, I want to get some variagated cotton and make one.

Very pretty - I love the sunny yellow and white! I'll have to make one of these.

Thanks for pointing us to that pattern. I've often thought I should knit some as gifts with boutique soap, but I can never find a non-fussy but good looking pattern for one.

I hope you are not using the dishcloth as it looks too nice to be used - love the pattern. I have always wanted to knit dishcloth but never could find the time. Thanks for your nice comment on my blog.
