Handmade washcloths are so luxurious to use in the bath. They make you feel like you are indulging in a day at the spa. And, they are so quick and easy to make, you won't feel bad about using them everyday in the kitchen.

Materials

  • 1 - 3 oz/85 g ball Lily Sugar 'N Cream Yarn
  • US size 10 (6 mm) knitting needles
  • stitch marker

My finished washcloth is 8 inches square when dry (it will stretch out a bit when it's wet) and you can make about three with one skein of yarn.
