Here it is July. I can hardly believe summer is almost half over. My determination to knit a different dishcloth each month to include in my Christmas gift sets continues.
For this dishcloth I used my trusty size 6 needles and a skein of Bernat 100% cotton yarn. The color is “Torrent” or navy blue for those of us who are less technical. The pattern is by Emily Jagos, and can be found for free here.
Hope you enjoy and happy knitting.
Yes! Yes!! Yes!!! I know it is not May. It is June. But I never posted my monthly dishcloth for May so I thought I would try to get caught up on my blogging today, by sharing it.

Here it is the first Monday in April. It is hard to believe that the year is a quarter gone and spring is fully upon us. Thankfully, I have been able to keep up with my monthly dishcloths, so when Christmas gets here I will have several gifts already done.
I created this pattern after reviewing several others. I used my size 6 needles and Black Current 100% cotton yarn by Peaches & Creme. I hope to have the pattern written up for you later this week and will post it for you soon.
UPDATE: Here is the link to the pattern for anyone interested.
With St. Patrick’s Day on March 17th, I could not pass up on this cute dishcloth for the month of March. While I am not fond of green beer or believe in “luck”, I love the symbolism of the shamrock. Legend says that St. Patrick used the shamrock to help explain the Trinity to the people of Ireland.
To make this dishcloth I began with Rhonda White’s free pattern posted on Knttingknonsence.com (here) and a skein of Hot Green yarn by Sugar ‘n Cream. For once I did not change the pattern, but knitted it up as written, other than changing the needle size to 6 (as I do with all of my dishcloths). As always, Rhonda White has done an excellent job. I love the seed stitch edging that the pattern uses.
Well Valentine’s Day is come and gone and so is the chocolate, but the dishcloths are still here and are used all year long at my house. I wanted to share with you my last heart dishcloth for the season.
This is a simple square cloth with a seed stitch border. I used my favorite #6 needles and “Bright Pink” cotton yarn by Peaches & Creme.
