After having such a great time last year with the Anthology Blanket Knit-a-Long, I had to put in some thought about how to keep up the fun for knitters this year. I decided to team up with several other designers to bring you the Knitted Kitchen Blog Hop: Learn A New Stitch Dishcloth Series 2017. This post includes all the information you’ll need to join us and will be regularly updated with links to the new patterns as they are posted, so read on for details!

This post contains affiliate links. I may receive compensation (at no added cost to you) if you make a purchase using these links. Yarn for this blog hop was provided by Lion Brand.

How the Knitted Kitchen Blog Hop works

I’ve teamed up with Joanita from Creative Crochet Workshop, Pia from Stitches ‘N’ Scraps, and Sarah from Craft Gossip: Knitting, as well as a few guest designers, to bring you 45 free knitting patterns with tutorials.

Every Thursday from January through November, 2017, we’ll share a free dishcloth pattern with you.

Lion Brand has generously provided us with yarn for the blog hop, so all of the patterns will be made with 24/7 Cotton or Kitchen Cotton. Both are medium (worsted, #4) weight 100% cotton yarns.

I’m using 24/7 Cotton in my squares in 11 different colors (98 Ecru, 101 Pink, 102 Aqua, 108 Denim, 133 Tangerine, 142 Rose, 143 Lilac, 147 Purple, 156 Mint, 157 Lemon, and 178 Jade). Here’s a little sneak peak of my yarn.

I hope this gives you some color inspiration for your own dishcloths.
