 Abbreviations:


 B4= Border 4 stitches ( moss or garter stitch )

 K2tog = Knit two together as to knit, creates a right angled  decrease stitch.
 Yo= yarn over, bring yarn from back between the two needles to the front
of the work. As you knit the next stitch it creates a new stitch. Anytime
 yarn goes over a needle it creates a new stitch.

 Washcloth

 Knit 1 inch of Border, then begin pattern.

 Pattern:
 Row 1: B4,purl,B4.
 Row 2: B4, *yo,k2togbl,k1,k2tog,yo,k1* to the last 10 stitches
 yo,k2togbl,k1,k2tog,yo, B4.

 Repeat these two rows till a border distance from desired length, end with
 row 1 ( rs), knit border. Bind off and weave in ends.

 Follow pattern above to desired length-sample is 16" length. Knit border
 bind off all but three stitches. Slip stitches to double point needle and
 proceed to make handle by making an I Cord, knitting the three stitches,
 do not turn work, slide
 work to other end of the needle, yarn in back, knit three stitches ( note:
 first knit stitch at the end, tighten yarn up before stitching for a good
 edge.) continue this till desired length of handle- sample is 9". Bind off
and attach end to the other side of the scrubber. Cast on 3 stitches on
 double point needles, knit I cord for 9 inches, bind off and attach the
 ends to the other end of the scrubber.


 Gift giving ideas:
 Make a "pamper me" basket with washcloths and matching backscrubber in a
 re-usable container. Great for bridal showers, new moms, off to college
 students or for yourself, everyone deserves to be pampered!
