The Little Raindrops Washcloth is a reversible textured small washcloth with vertical i-cord edging. Use up the cotton from your yarn stash for a great gift knit, or little handmade treat for your own home. 

The body of the washcloth is knit flat, and gently textured with a 2x2 seed stitch pattern, made of knits and purls in a four row repeat. On the vertical edges of the cloth is i-cord edging, which is created using a pattern of slip stitches at the beginning and end of each row. The washcloth is finished with a corresponding i-cord loop for easy hanging.

Grab your partial skeins of cotton, because the pattern knits up quickly with just 18 - 22 grams of DK/Light Worsted weight yarn.
