I designed this washcloth pattern to be easy, but special enough to bring a spa-like feeling to your bath. These washcloths would make a great gift, presented with a pretty bar of soap.

I used I Love This Cotton! for my washcloths, and it’s so soft to work with. It does, however, seem to knit up at a finer gauge than some of the other brands. If you use Peaches & Creme, Sugar ‘n Cream or some other brand, you may find it easier to go up a needle size or two and then just delete 6 stitches from the pattern to get the same size cloth.
