Like the Colorwave dishcloth, this dishcloth/washcloth is based on Barbara Walker’s Double Brioche stitch, one of my favorites. It is a little tricky to learn, but once the pattern becomes familiar you can fall into a great rhythm.

Some knitters may find it a little weird to make YO’s at the beginning of a row, so I’ve tried to guide you through it with a lot of words.

A very simple change to the pattern results in a surprising variation!
