Here's an easy pattern for a dishcloth that isn't so boring to knit your eyes cross, yet simple enough to be nearly mindless. :) The pictures aren't that good as it was nearing evening when I took them and we use CFLs and they make for crummy pictures. (I keep having problems getting blogger to upload my pics without freezing, so I'll try again...)
Requirements: Approx 1 oz Worsted Weight Cotton Yarn
Size 7 straight or circular needles
Tapestry Needle
Pattern Notes:
Cable 2 (c2): Skip the first stitch on your left needle and knit into the front of the second stitch. Without dropping it from your needle knit into the front of the first stitch. Let both stitches fall off your needle.
Cable Pattern:
Row 1: k4, (p1, k2) 10 times, p1, k4
Row 2: k4, (k1, p2) 10 times, k5
Row 3: k4, (p1, c2) 10 times, p1, k4
Row 4: k4, (k1, p2) 10 times, k5
Directions:
Cast on 39 sts. You may adjust your stitch count for a larger or smaller cloth as long as it remains a multiple of 3, plus 9 (in this case 10 x 3 = 30 + 9 = 39)
Knit 4 rows garter stitch
Work Cable Pattern 9 times.
Work row 1 of cable pattern once more. Work 4 rows garter stitch and bind off.
Weave in ends.
