This is the forty-fourth pattern in the Knitted Kitchen Blog Hop: Learn A New Stitch Dishcloth Series 2017. You can find all the information you’ll need to follow along, as well as regularly updated links to each of the 48 knitting patterns here. As its name suggests, the Simple Chevron Dishcloth is a straightforward ripple design. I added stripes to keep things interesting but it could also work in a solid color.
