This is a simple knitted burp cloth. It’s knitted from 3 stitches, increasing up, knitting the body as a rectangle, and then decreasing back down to 3 and binding off. Easy and mindless, great for charity or for knitting while you dream of a new little bundle of joy about to enter your life. Would be a great beginner project to learn kfb and k2tog, or “knit into the front and back of a stitch” and “knit 2 together”.
