Looking for a lace dishcloth that feels soft, romantic, and a little whimsical?

Sweet Violets is knit in Lilac cotton and features a flowing lace texture with a gentle floral feel, pretty on the counter, but still practical for everyday use.

The stitch pattern has enough variety to stay interesting, but it’s built on a repeat you’ll settle into quickly.

And once you block it, the lace opens up beautifully, giving the finished dishcloth a crisp, polished look.
