Snippets & Scraps Series # 1 has three patterns plus general directions to turn your favorite stitch into a beautiful scrappy dishcloth. For this first series, I started with three of my favorite stitches: Suzette, Lemon Peel, and Double Lemon Peel. In addition, I give instructions to create your own Snippets & Scraps Series #1 version using your favorite stitch and tips to modify the pattern based on the amount of scrap yarn you have.

Gauge is not important. Use the tension and hook size that you are most comfortable with while working with cotton yarn.

Any cotton yarn can be used. Be sure that the yarns that you pick for a project are very similar in weight.

I happen to have a lot of variegated yarn scraps, so these are all done with variegated scraps. You could also use two solid yarns or complete the small stripe with a sold and the main part of the dishcloth with variegated yarn.
