Have you even been invited over to someone’s home and wondered what kind of gift to bring for the hostess?  This rustic chic dishcloth would be the perfect solution to that problem.  Dishcloths are quick and rewarding projects that are also inexpensive since they are smaller and do not require too much yarn.

The key to creating these luxurious washcloths is the yarn.  My absolute favourite cotton yarn is Knit Picks Dishie Yarn.  The colours are so lovely and the quality is incredible for the price.

I have written out and posted the free pattern for this dishcloth below on this page.  However, you can also purchase the PDF file for easy printing and reading.
