This knit dishcloth picture is another one of my favorites! The picture is a pair of warm wooly mittens. The mittens are designed entirely in seed stitch, to give a fluffy texture.
The design is not symmetrical so adjustments may need to be made by lefty knitters.
As mentioned, this cloth is different than my others. For those of you familiar with my garter stitch technique of every-other design rows, please note that this cloth is seed stitch on a stockinette background. The cloth requires careful attention to the pattern as every row is a design row. The border is seed stitch, but the pattern is written so that you may substitute a preferred border if you wish.
