A textured dishcloth, knitted in the round, from the outside in.

Put two of my dishcloths into your cart and pay for only one! No code needed.

The pattern comes with charts as well as row by row written instructions, and instructions on how to change size for a larger item with the same stitch pattern.

Lavender Frosting is a fairly simple dishcloth with a decorative end result and an interesting enough construction to not make it a boring project. It knits up quickly, and makes a great gift. With its ridges it’s good for a dishcloth or a spa cloth, and it can be resized for a larger project, a cushion cover, baby blanket etc.

Testers said:
“- I loved knitting this. Fairly easy and fast.”
“- Easy to knit. Looks elegant.”
“- A very pretty cloth, almost too pretty to be used as a cleaning cloth so would use as face cloth or a small doily. Enjoyed knitting this as was my first go at knitting a cloth in the round.”
“- Clearly written. Abbreviations very clear and well described. Knitting the outside in was a welcome change.”
“- I loved this one. Challenging but still quick and simple.”
