Carrying on in my 100% cotton obsession – I have decided to indulge in a luxurious linen stitch spa cloth. This Spa Cloth features an easy yet interesting linen stitch, 100% cotton yarn, and is perfect for spring knitting, not to mention gift giving!
Now don’t be concerned by the term linen stitch, after all, it’s all just knits and purls. In the linen stitch pattern, they just happen to be arranged in a certain way to give that unique texture, and a richer fabric.

So, I’m sure you are all aware by now of my tiny cotton obsession. You may also be hip to my latest knitted dishcloth craze, and in that case, it should be no surprise to you at all that I’ve taken the cotton and the cloths to the spa. You’re welcome.
Cloths are the perfect beginner project. This knitting pattern, in particular, allows you to experiment with a new stitch, and still enjoy the instant gratification of finishing a project. Relatively quick to finish, yet challenging enough to enjoy, this is the pattern is going to be your go-to pattern for the season.
