For me, the Seed Stitch Blocks Dishcloth Pattern is one of the most interesting to look at and of course, knit up. The Seed Stitch Blocks are surrounded by horizontal rows of Garter stitch and vertical rows of Stockinette stitch.

When I was a young girl a close friend of mine had a garden that completely filled her backyard. She was raised in the country with wide-open spaces while I grew up in the city. So needless to say, I was amazed at all the plants and beautiful flowers that filled her yard. I remember the rows and rows of thin rope running both horizontally and vertically with the tiny sprouts of plants popping up. Every time I use my Seed Stitch Blocks dishcloth I remember Barb and all the good times we spent in her backyard enjoying Mother Nature.

Materials I used: Lily/Sugar’n Cream; 100% Cotton. Color: #01740/Hot Pink – 1 skein. Size US5 (3.75mm) knitting needles. Gauge: 18sts/4” in the pattern stitch. To encourage you to go beyond the dishcloth; I’ve included the pattern repeat.

Enjoy ~
