    ABOUT THE PATTERN

     

    Sunshine: bright, cheery, and always ready to lift your mood. It’s no secret that summer is my favorite season (yes, even as a knitter), and that is because of the beautiful sunshine. There’s nothing like a bright, sunny day to lift my spirits and chase the blues away. Now, with the Summer in the Sun Dishcloth, we can have the summer sun brightening a day in the kitchen any day of the year!

     

    The Summer in the Sun Dishcloth is a fun, quick knit that uses simple lace techniques to create a sun motif that will cheer up your kitchen all year long! I highly recommend knitting a dishcloth in each of your favorite colors for maximum cheerfulness!

    TECHNIQUES


    The techniques included within this pattern include are basic knits, purls, yarn overs, K2tog, and K2tog tbl. If you aren’t familiar with any of these techniques, and you’re wondering if you’ll be able to work this pattern, I recommend checking out the respective tutorials on my YouTube channel. If you’re familiar with knits and purls, I definitely think you can do it! This is a great pattern for beginner knitters interested in trying out a simple lace pattern.

     

    All of my patterns include clear, step-by-step instructions and linked video technique tutorials that walk you through the pattern with confidence. I am also available for pattern support if you have questions.
