I recently have fallen in love with KrisKnits washcloths. She has a great blog and many free patterns on ravelry. My mother's birthday took my by surprise this year and I needed something quick, inexpensive, and personalized to make for her. What better than a handmade washcloth. She happens to be a little bit of a hippy child :) and loves the phrase/motto "Peace, Love, & Happiness". The idea was born using KrisKnits desings as inspiration, and also keeping in mind the finished sizes of her washcloths, I came up with this design. It it the first in the series for my mother. I hope they bring a smile to her face when she is doing the dishes and the same for those who try the patterns.

Needles: Size 4
Yarn: Sugar'n Creme Cotton - Bright Green
Finished Size Approx. 5" x 5" (28stitches x 53 rows)

* I knit very tightly so adjust needles size to get appropriate gauge*

Even rows = wrong side

Hello,
I am a very crafty person also. I love your peace dish cloth and am also in love with krisknits cloths. I would like to design some of my own as I have a bunch of charts I have mad up for tapestry crochet. Were did you get this graph paper? I have looked high and low for the paper like this with the very thin row for the knit back row. I would love to get my hands on some so I can make up some of my own charts. Please let me know, you can e-mail me at 6kittykats@comcast.net.
Thank you so much, Lori
Hi! I think this is such a fantastic pattern, I'm just dying to make it! I just have one question: How many grams does it take? I have a ball that's just over 42 grams, and I just want to make sure that it will be enough (seeing as how I only have one in the color I want to use LOL)
Thanks so much!
Lori M - Thanks so much! The graph paper is actually in excel. I created it myself because I could not find anything I liked. I wish I could easily explain how to create your own but its hit or miss and quite complicated. :)
niennaseregon - honestly I am not sure on the exact grams but I bought lilys sugar and creme and I can easily get 2 cloths out of one ball.
Wow, this is such a neat pattern! I cant wait to try your others! You rock!
Thank you for sharing your "artsy fartsy" creativity with us...
