This will give you a medium sized square. Margaret's Chinese Waves pattern results in a nice, firm, thickish dishcloth. Cast on 128 stitches, 32 stiches on each needle. Join, being careful not to twist stitches Row 1 & 2: knit Row 3 : *SSK, (slip 1, knit 1) 14 times, knit 2 tog* repeat between * * 3 times (once on each needle) Row 4 and all even rows: knit Row 5: *SSK, (slip 1, knit 1) 13 times, knit 2 tog*, repeat between * * 3 times Row 7: *SSK, (slip 1, knit 1) 12 times, knit 2 tog*, repeat between * * 3 times Continue knitting one less less repeat of the (slip 1, knit 1) until 8 stitches remain. Break yarn, thread the tail through the stiches and pull tight, weaving in the end. Thanks again!
