Houston and Huntsville Cloths

A dishcloth or face cloth can be interesting! This pattern has two geometric stitch patterns using only knit and purl stitches. This makes them good candidates for the novice knitter. The instructions are written, and charts are included. Use 100% cotton worsted weight yarn for maximum absorbency. These instructions produce a dense fabric that wears well.
