Graduation Cap Knit Dishcloth Pattern

Description

Give your recent graduate a knit picture of a graduation cap! This knit dishcloth pattern has a profile picture of a mortarboard with the tassel hanging down on the left side.

The design is not symmetrical so some adjustments might need to be made for lefty knitters if it matters which side the tassel is hanging on.

The picture is created in garter stitch on a stockinette background. The border is seed stitch, but the pattern is written so that you may substitute a preferred border if you wish.
