Created To Be Used

The Somerside Dishcloth uses linked stitches to create a nice dense fabric prefect for washing dishes. The addition of the scrubby cotton border gives an added boost of cleaning power for those tough spots!

This pattern is an easy one-row repeat that works up quickly, it’s beginner friendly and has lovely texture.
