I’ve been hooked on knitting dish cloths lately. In the hot weather, they make for a nice small project that doesn’t drape over your lap and make you too hot. Plus dish cloth cotton (e.g. Sugar and Cream, Peaches and Cream, etc.) is so colorful and fun!
My go-to-pattern is Grandmother’s Favorite Dish Cloth. That’s the pattern I used for all the dish cloths pictured above. It’s quick and easy to memorize — perfect to work on while watching TV in the evening. (I can’t stand sitting still watching TV — I have to have something in my hands so I feel productive! Ha.) Plus I love being able to toss a couple in my purse and take them as little gifts when I visit friends!

super cute! sometimes i think i want to take up knitting, but i’m too much of a perfectionist for crafting lol
Lovely dishcloths! I love the colors you used for each one! :D
I just found your blog when I did a Google search for Grandmother’s Favorite Dishcloth. I love these! I make them for Christmas gifts every year and everyone loves them. In fact, I can hardly keep up with the demand for them. I have exactly the same knitting needles that you do with the “Find a Cure” wording. I love to make my dishcloths with these needles. I’m likeyou. I can NOT sit still without doing something with my hands.
