Candy Striper Cloth
Discontinued.
This digital pattern is no longer available online.
The idea behind this cloth was to create something solid but with some texture - that old scrubby vs. rinsy thing - and that reminded me of the old candy striper uniforms in hospitals.
The stitch pattern is somewhat similar to that of the Eyelets & Ridges Cloth - but in this case the increases after the K2tog ridges are made by knitting into the front & back of the stitch rather than lifting the bar to make a hole. It results in a much firmer cloth, particularly well suited to dishes.
This cloth would also look fabulous with three, four, or even more different colors. The one shown used about 1/3rd of a skein each of the pink and white Lily Sugar N Cream. What a great stashbuster!
