This pattern was created for students of a high school knitting class to practice basic knitting techniques. The construction of this knit follows a basic formula for creating reverse mitred squares, or squares made using increases instead of decreases. It also allows opportunities for working in a dash of texture or colour. Once you have worked through it, you may also be able to see how to adjust the numbers used throughout the pattern in order to control size and even shape, making your dishcloths truly your own.
