Inspired by Barbara G. Walker’s Mosaic #22 in her book, “Sampler Knitting,” we set about to design a pattern that would reflect the rocky shoreline near our shop in Port Townsend, Washington. She gave us the waves, we added some rocks, and voilà: the Rocks and Waves Dishcloth. We hope you’ll enjoy learning about Mosaic knitting while making this useful
cloth.
