# 3  Hi,I am a beginner knitter but with this said, I also  "try"  what happens if I  do this" :)

I have created the following pattern using cotton yarn for a dish cloth:

Use no. 7 knitting needles
Cast on 57 stitches on a needle
Row 1: Knit
Row 2: * K 1 st, slip next st onto needle * repeat across row ending with  K 1 st
Row 3: * K 1 st, next st K in back of st  * repeat across row these two rows are the pattern.

Do the pattern until you like the length. The last row should be your knit row & slip row = this row you Knit; and then the next row bind off.

This pattern leaves no holes in the dish cloth where forks can snag the cloth; and it is a pretty pattern and yet simple for a beginner.

Adjustments with size of needles and cast on stitches can make the cloth bigger or smaller. Just make sure that the last stitch or row 2 ends with a Knit stitch.

Have fun!  Thanks for making this site available.
