Bauhaus Washcloth

Lion Brand® Lion® Cotton

GAUGE:

19 stitches + 24 rows = 4 in. [10 cm] in Washcloth pattern. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Bauhaus Washcloth Reviewed by Kay Smith on 2009-06-05 *****
I made this in verigated cotton thread. I cut it down to 20 stiches. It makes about a 5-1/2 by 6 in cloth. You can then squeeze in out with one hand. I made it a little bigger than my hand size. It is a very nice pattern to make.
