Split Crescents
By SouthernComfortKC /1-2012
CO 38
I’m using sz US 4’s as I like my dishcloths a bit smaller but feel free to use whatever size needles you like for your size cloths..
You will need:
2 contrasting colors. Preferably solids.
2 stitch markers for your border stitches. This keeps them separate from the main body of the cloth.
Always slip your stitches as if you’re going to purl.
Abbreviations:
WYIP: With yarn in Back
WYIF: With yarn in Front
Special Notes:
Border stitches are 4 stitches of knit. They will not be mentioned in the pattern so be sure to use stitch markers to separate your 1st 4 sts and your last 4 sts.
When you drop 1 color and pick the new color, always twist the new up and over the old. Do not cut your yarn when knitting with new color.
