Dish Mat

Dish Mat is a very simple pattern—almost like a big swatch you can dry dishes on. It’s made from two strands of Knitpicks Simply Organic Sport yarn held and knit together. **Materials:** About 400 yards/366 meters of Knitpicks Simply Organic Cotton Sport, knit with two strands held together 1 24” circular needle in US7-8/4.5-5.0mm, or size needed for gauge, used to work flat Crochet Hook—Size H-I/5-.55mm or as needed Tapestry needle **Gauge:** Gauge is 18 sts and 34 rows over 4”/10cm, in pattern, after working braids, blocked. Gauge isn’t too essential for this project—the aim is a thick, absorbent fabric with enough substance to support the braid technique—but for best results, please be sure to check your gauge. The .PDF is free to download for personal use, at least through October 27th, possibly indefinitely.
