If you’re in a bind for a gift, nothing beats a couple of handknit washcloths with some nice soap!  I’ve given similar gifts to friends & family who have moved into a new house as well as for last minute Christmas gifts.  I always have some cotton laying around, since most washcloths take less than one skein of Dishie or Simply Cotton.  If you’re in a pinch, the Knit Picks staff have several free patterns for you!

Jenny K. created this adorable Chomp Chomp washcloth:

And Kerin has a recycling inspired one, Three R’s Dishcloth:

Brett designed his first pattern – a Roller Skating T-Rex washcloth!

Angela has a cute Bunny Love washcloth:

And I was inspried by Portlandia so I Put a Birdie On It

We all started with the same DIY Dishcloth Pattern that Kerin designed – if you’re feeling creative, then you can make your own as well!

Have fun – we certainly did designing these!  

Have a very happy holiday season from all of us here at Knit Picks!
