When showers give way to flowers there seems to be more to smile about. This tulip pattern is a great Spring project that is sure to bring a smile to your face as you make it, and use it. And you can spread the smiles by giving a knit dishcloth to someone else! Using just knits and purls, bring to life a delightful tulip in the center of this washcloth.

NOTE: I like the way a seed stitch border lays and the texture it provides for scrubbing. You could easily replace it with a garter stitch border instead if you prefer. To do so, knit rows 1-3, knit the first three and last three stitches on rows 4-34 and knit rows 35-37

This pattern would also be suitable for a potholder/trivet
or displayed as a decorative table or shelf mat.
