Want a dishcloth that feels a little luxurious, even if it’s heading straight for the sink?

Violet Velvet is knit in rich purple cotton and features a mix of smooth sections, lace details, and raised ridges that form a soft scalloped texture across the fabric.

Although it looks intricate, the stitch pattern is worked over an easy 8-row repeat, with calm purl-based rows between the more detailed sections, so it becomes very manageable once you’ve worked through the first repeat.

In sturdy cotton yarn, the texture stays crisp, and the finished cloth is both practical and beautiful.
