Designed by Julie A. Bolduc
This dishcloth uses the featured stitch, the Waffle Stitch. It is a little over sized so that after it is washed and dried, it will shrink to the average size. The texture of this dishcloth lends itself well for scrubbing dishes clean. This same pattern could be made with nylon plastic canvas yarn for even more scrubbing power.
