Framed by a garter stitch border to keep the fabric flat, the Irish Moss Diamond motifs are worked against a background of stockinette stitch. The diamond stitch motif is created through the variation of knit and purl stitches, making this pattern suitable for knitters of all skill levels.

It’s a knitting pattern for a dishcloth - so, gauge is not important.

Final measurements will vary depending on the choice of yarn and needle size, my measurements provide an estimate only. (The yarn I used is Stylecraft Kon-Tiki, which has been discontinued for quite a while.)

Including the garter stitch borders and after working two pattern repeats on size 4mm needles, my dishcloth measures 12cm x 18cm in total and required approximately 17g of Stylecraft Kon-Tiki (50% acrylic, 50% cotton yarn).
