~ Free Knit Moss Stitch Dishcloth Pattern ~

After creating my Free Simple Seed Stitch Dishcloth Pattern, I also designed this Knit Moss Stitch Dishcloth Pattern. I decided to offer both of these patterns for free on my website. They were my first two designs and they are great projects to aid beginners in learning to stitch.

Need a little more help?

In short, that should be about all you need if you want to try this one out. However, maybe you still feel like you might need a little extra assistance. That being the case you might want online classes to help you. If so, check out the links below for Craftsy or Annie’s. As a matter of fact, I take online classes often to improve and advance my skills. You can always learn something new! I actually taught myself to knit and crochet through “Teach myself” kits. In addition I’ll share a link for something very similar to what I purchased for myself below as well.
