knitted dishcloths


as many of you already know, i tend to knit these a lot and they are SUPER easy! even for the novice or completely inexperienced knitter.  

supplies:
size 7 knitting needles (i use circular vs. 2 straight)
Lilly's Sugar and Cream cotton yarn
**i know the picture is of a size 8, but i couldnt find one of a size 7.  these Takumi bamboo circular needles are the BEST!**


CO - cast on
K - knit
YO - yarn over
K2tog - knit 2 together

the pattern is as follows:

CO 4
K one row
next row: K2, YO, K2
next row: K2, YO, K to end of row
continue to repeat the last row until you have a total of 45 stitches on the needles

next row: K1, K2tog, YO, K2tog, K to end of row
continue the 'decreasing' row until you have 5 stitches left on the needles

next row: K2, K2tog, K1

bind off the 4 stitches

weave in the ends.
