Seed Stitch DishCloth – Free Knitting Pattern

Trying out new stitch patterns on dishcloths just makes sense. Essentially, they are a big swatch you can put to use cleaning the kitchen. Seed stitch has a nice little bit of nubby texture perfect for washing dishes, the counter, or your car (though you’ll probably want to use the XL version, available here: Seed Stitch XL Dishcloth – Free Knitting Pattern

Whether you are looking to try seed stitch for the first time, or you are an advanced knitter who wants to keep their hands busy, this is a great pattern for holiday gift making.

Dish cloth measures approximately 8″ (before blocking). Looking for a larger seed stitch towel? Check out the oversized version here: Seed Stitch XL Dish Cloth – Free Knitting Pattern

I used Premier Home Cotton for this project, but any worsted weight cotton yarn you have on hand will work.
