THE NEVER ENDING DISHCLOTH SAMPLER
PATTERN NO.5: SAOIRE DISHCLOTH
…………………………………………………………………
A little preview of a soon to be published garment and accessory collection, Saoire is pronounced ‘see-ruh’ and means holidays / vacation in Irish. It is thus named, because I first began playing around with this stitch motif over the summer holidays!
And besides: Don’t we all need a stack of hand-knitted dishcloths to bring along on our travels, lest we (gasp!) succumb to synthetic sponges away from home? So perhaps this
could be your designated vacation dishcloth! With a matching cardigan and shawl, coming later this year.

The Never Ending Dishcloth Sampler is an ongoing collection of dischcloth patterns featuring motifs from my existing garment and accessory designs.
