Description
This dishcloth picture is of a hummingbird caught in mid-flight. It looks like it’s ready to fly off the cloth.
The design is not symmetrical so adjustments might need to be made for lefty knitters if it matters which way the hummingbird faces.
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.
