Ivy Wash Cloth

Sorry about the quality of the picture. I tried, really. I think I need to work on my blocking technique. Any way, this is my ivy wash cloth pattern. I was inspired to make this from a pair of Fair Isle mittens I saw a while back.

This is an extremely fast knit, or at least in a night or two if you are new to knitting. Left over project yarn would work great in this small project. Enough blabbing, here's the pattern:

Materials

• About 110 yds of any color yarn
• Size 6 US straight knitting needles
• Tapestry needle

Instructions

There is no gauge for this pattern. If you want a small wash cloth, use smaller knitting needles. For a larger cloth, use larger needles. Just have fun with it!

Cast on 40 sts and follow the below pattern. When you are finished, bind off knitwise. Weave in the ends with a tapestry needle and cut the excess yarn. Easy peasy.
