Skills required
Long-tail cast-on
Slipping Stitches
Reading mosaic charts (instructions given)
Materials
Approximately 100 to 120 yards of sport-weight yarn in roughly equal amounts of two colors. Nine Patch and Flying Geese use slightly more of C1 and less of C2 – about 60 and 45 yards. Samples were knit in Knit Picks Comfy Sport (75% Pima cotton, 25% acrylic). Heavier dishcloth cotton will require larger needles, yield larger cloths, and take more yardage
US 4/3.5 mm needles or size needed to obtain gauge
US 6/4 mm needles or two sizes larger than gauge needles for binding off
Tapestry needle for weaving in ends
Samples were knit in Knit Picks Comfy Sport in Cashew, Ivory, Parchment, Copper, Hawk, and Clarity
