Thank you. I’ve been wanting to knit dish cloths and this was the easiest tutorial I’ve seen. At 76 you can still learn something new. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
THIS is absolutely the BEST example of how to knit. Your perfect description of HOW to do this, accompanied by your slowly measured and unhurried gentle movements, guide us artfully through each step. Other videos are way too quick to catch visually. YOU ARE A NATURAL at teaching! EXCELLENT TUTORIAL. THANK YOU.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad it was easy to follow along :)

Thank you so much for your video I haven't knitted in a long time. It helped refresh my memory. God bless
Can’t agree more. Thank you for sharing this idea! I tried and am loving it 😊

This video is an absolute gem, even five years. Simple, precise, and easy to understand. I’m about halfway through my first dishcloth and this has helped me so much!
Thanks for your excellent lesson 😀 I am 74 and completed my first ever knitting project 👍
Omg congratulations
Ummmmm hi I just liked your comment, you were 74 when you wrote this and I was your 74th like on your comment. 😁
Congtats
That’s great!
Well done you!!
2 yr later you must be able to knit anything now.
I’m glad to finally see a CZcams knitter who “throws” the yarn. I’ve done it that way for 51years. It’s not fast but I can’t seem to change the way I hold the yarn. Very good tutorial!
I've never knit before. This video was very easy to follow and I have just finished knitting the dishcloth, thank you for a great video.
I am a crocheter. I tried knitting a few different times and just couldn’t get it. Once I finally told myself that I WAS going to learn, I was determined! This is the exact pattern on why I wanted to learn; to make the same dish clothes that my grandma has made for everyone her entire life. With this tutorial, I am able to make that happen! Thank you so much! Can’t wait to surprise my grandma that I didn’t give up on knitting. ♥️

I have made this dishcloth something like 10 times now for gifts, personal use, etc. You do such a great job of explaining!
I realize this video was posted 2.5 years ago but it is wonderful. Your explanation, your gentle voice and slow demonstration are perfect for a beginner. I see you only posted 4 videos. If you are out there please come back and post more.
Yes same here, you are the Best! as a very new beginner made your dishcloth came out so great thank you,🌸 looking forward for your new videos😊
I have a few of these treasured dishcloths passed down from my grandmother and mom that were still intact. I now know what every sibling is getting in their Christmas stocking this year! Thank you so very much!
Thank you my grandma has taught me over 20 years ago and I was having a hard time getting started again you made it very easy to understand ❤️
If you’re a beginner like me do yourself a favor and buy some quality cotton yarn from a local shop not the cheap peaches and cream sold at big stores. Worth every dollar I can’t believe how much easier it is to work with. I was pulling my hair out with the peaches and cream. Thanks for the great tutorial
After starting over and over, I finally finished my first dishcloth. Please make more videos with more easy projects for beginners. The way you explain is just perfect. Could you make one on how to do purl. Thanks again!
You are an outstanding teacher. Your directions are perfect. I just completed my first dishcloth and am about to start another!
Thank you for your carefully illustrated lesson in how to knit, cast on and make the starting slip knot. You do a wonderful job of teaching.
After 40 years i started knitting and i have tried the dishcloth where the explanation is so clear and easy and the demonstration is so wonderful to follow.
Now i will look for your patterns.
Thks
Your videos are simple to follow (and reverse, I’m a lefty!). I just finished my 3rd dishcloth in 2 days! I wish I was able to share a photo to show off my work. 😃
You are a very great teacher to those who are just learning to knit!! Thank you 😊
Thank you!!! I haven't knitted in 40 years! I just bought somebody's stash, so I need easy projects like these! 😅
I don't know how to read projects just yet, so this video is crucial.

My neighbor made a cotton dish cloth for me for Christmas. I just started knitting this year and I have some cotton yarn that I bought and haven't used yet so I thought I would try to make one. Surprisingly this is the first video I came upon and it is exactly the same as my gift! I know I can make it with your excellent instructions. Thank you!
Oh my, I just realized I don't have size 7 needles, just 6 and 8.
Thank you for instructions I can understand! I'm 66 and will be learning knitting, crocheting and tatting this summer with a couple of groups of ladies at our Senior Citizen Center!
I am SO excited and look forward to FINALLY learning these three arts. 😊❤
I just found you (6 years), and am relearning how to knit. I've always just knit dishcloths with turning, and then knit and purl. This is such a wonderful pattern! Thank you for explaining the steps!
I have been crocheting for a long time but I just have not been able to make a simple wash cloth. So glad I looked up this at last I accomplished a wash cloth I could be proud of and one I could follow this is a wonderful pattern and I was thrilled to see the wash cloth appearing with each row. Fantastic! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video. It is great for a beginner like me. I couldn't have done it without this. I have completed my first dish rag...thanks a bunch!
A friend made me 2 of these and they are my favorite dish cloths. I have started knitting and am so happy to have found this! Thankyou!
Thank you!!! You’re such a great instructor. You made this first time knitting project for me so easy to follow and understand. I made a dishcloth!! 😊
So far the best tutorial. I have watched about 7 tutorials & this is the best. I thank you. You are the best knitting teacher. I use to knit and Crochet but something happen that I couldn't get my hands to work in coordination. You have been the best therapy. I will continue until I get to knit the way I used to. Thank you again.
I started making this years ago and forgot the pattern. I’m so happy to see this video.. great tutorial!
Thank you! So easy to follow. I haven’t knit in 25+ years.
Thank you for these clear instructions. I like to use these as oversize coasters on my bedside table so I don't scratch the wood when I set things down. I was buying them on ebay but now I can make them myself in my favorite colors.
This is such an excellent instruction video. I turn to it each time just to reinforce what I think I know, and I learn something new each time. Thank you for you for posting this and helping so many.
I have been crocheting most of the Summer. Im ready to pick up my knitting needles and do some practice and this will be a great start. Thank you for not starting in the middle of the pattern. I will start this over the weekend.
Omg Thank you so much for making this video! The others I´ve found were way too fast to follow, this is perfect :)
You are great. I use to knit but got away from it for a lot of personal reasons. Thank you for the refresher course. Just finished my first dish cloth. Now ready to start the matching on.
Thanks! I’ve done this pattern many times in the past, but had forgotten it and needed a refresher. I just skipped to the parts I needed since I’m not new to knitting, but this is excellent for beginners and folks like me who just needed a refresher. Thanks!
I too need to go back to start and end the dish cloth and found this video so helpful.
Amazing tutorial! I’ve never even knit a swatch or anything before and I was able to follow this and the dishcloth looks so good! Thank you!!
Finished my first dish cloth. A few mistakes but a good practice. Thanks for the tutorial. I'm trying to learn continental style but I came across your video and was able to follow it. You go slow enough for me. lol. Thanks for posting.
This was BRILLIANT!! I started this two days ago and just managed to complete it! 🥰😘
You are a great teacher.
I have been making these for many years and just figured out how to do it on my own, but it is great seeing it explained so well.
PS I make increase and decrease differently but oddly enough, they look identical
I want to learn how to make my own dish cloths. I love using them. I will keep watching this video over and over. Thank you for going slow. That helps a lot. 😊
This is the best tutorial I’ve come across, simple and to the point. Thanks!
I forgot to mention ,you are one of the best instructors I have ever come across....Thanks again !
Thank yo so much! I did 2 of these last night! My first project. I'm afraid I'm hooked.
Your video is one of the best I've seen for learning to knit. You are slow and show exactly how the stitches are done. Thanks for the video.
Thank you!! You have taught me how to knit! One of the best tutorials I've seen!
This was a great project, finished it in two afternoons, I screwed up though at the end so I’ll need to get my knitting instructor to help me figure out what I did but I’ll definitely make another one!
In 2019 I stated, I want to learn how to knit. Thank you, so much for this great start.
I agree this is one of the best beginner videos. Easy to hear and see and nice to be able to see every stitch clearly. Thanks
Wow. 25 years ago. She's good and takes it slow so shes easy to follow. I hope she's still around and revisits do we can see what else she's created.
Excellent video. Your voice is so friendly, and not boring, it sounds like you enjoy teaching us and that makes your video better then the others. Also your camera work is up close and clear. thank you for your time.
Excellent tutorial, perfect example of how to make your first dish cloth. Thank you so Much.
😃 soooooooooooo helpful ! i struggled learning this from my gramma who was in person and teaching only me, and this video made it a brease!
This was a great tutorial. U am a beginner knitter in my 70's and believe or not I could read...understand and follow it....
I am so happy 😊
Thankyou....thankyou...thankyou
I'm going to try this but my mind can't even comprehend how the edge is made when it's all one stitch 🤣 looks great ! It's clearly the yarn over thing but its magic how it's all the way around 🤯
Thank you so much. I have always wanted to know how to do this dish cloth, and I am also left handed and have a hard time understanding the patterns that I read to so the knitting work. Thank you for making this pattern easy to understand.
I can’t wait to try this!! I wanted to try a knitting project but wanted something small, this is perfect.
I followed this and had it done in a day, thank you so much for this tutorial!! 😊
This is a great beginner project! Thank you so much for making this video! I do have a suggestion though. It would be great if you could make a video using the dishcloth again and teach us how to troubleshoot mistakes. I've looked at other videos and my mistakes don't look like I dropped a stitch. Anyway, thank you so much for taking the time to share your gift with us!
I completed my first ever project thanks to your video and instructions
Thank you !!!!!
This tutorial is soooo much better than the last one i attempted to follow! You have restored my confidence to complete this project
Thank you! I’ve wanted to knit this version but forgot how. Your video is amazing. Thank you so much.
Just finished my first dishcloth and it came out nice. I plan on making several more. Your video was very easy to follow. Thank you!
Thank you for a well-produced, just-the-facts-ma'am knitting video! Every word was apt and very well explained to newbies like myself. I made my first dishcloth in no time! You make me feel like a pro. Please keep up the no-fluff videos (too many other instructional videos are either over-explained, unclear, or stuffed with "fluff"--We don't need to hear about the speaker's children, apartment decor, or kitty cat!) I appreciate your video so much!
Thank you for this video! It was very easy to follow and now I'm knitting dish cloths like a champ!!
This was my very first attempt at knitting I am a crocheter but wanted to try knitting. I'm proud of it even if it is a little wonky.
Thank you so much! Your video was super easy to follow. Your voice is so calm and gentle it's almost like a guided meditation!
Thanks you explain this stitch so much better then anyone I’ll look up and I think I did a great job on my dishcloth thanks
Wow! I love this. Can't wait to try it. Please make more videos! ❤️
Such a cleverly designed pattern and crystal clear instructions. It has given me more confidence to continue knitting. Thank you!
Thank you so very much, this is just what I needed to start to learn to knit. I normally crochet. I want to commend you on your whole video," very well made !" 1. you zoom in so I can see what you are doing, 2. you go perfectly slow enough to help me see and learn, 3. your voice instructions are perfectly timed as you work the stitches. " You are an exellant teacher ! " I subscribed to your channel and will be exploring what other videos you have also made....... I am hoping to find what to do once I find out I have dropped a stitch how to fix it...
You are such a great teacher. My first complete knitting project and I was able to follow along as I watched the video with very little rewinding. Thank you
Great tutorial, thank you. The speed and information were fantastic.
This video was a great help. I had never knit before and this was very helpful and easy to follow! Thank you
Wow! This really is easy! Thank you so much for giving such clear instructions. This is very exciting that I can actually do something! LOL I appreciate your taking it slow and explaining so well.
I hope you make more videos. I’ve learned how to knit by watching you. I’ve crocheted for over 20 years. I’ve tried several times to knit. Without you I wouldn’t have done it.
I have made this many times, but not for years, and I couldn't remember how to decrease, so I really appreciate this lesson! I'm over 70,too!
Thank you very much. My very first knitting lesson. I agree that this was the easiest tutorial I've seen. I've been crochetting for long and wanted to learn how to knit for long time.
Thankyou so much for your wonderful tutorial!!! I love my dishcloth 😍
Very easy to follow tutorial, thank you!
Thank you for teaching me this easy knitting lesson!.. you explained it so well!❤
Thank you so much! I am so pleased to have successfully completed my very first knitting project because of your excellent instruction!
This is the best! I watch this video every few months because sometimes i forget what i am doing if it has been a while since i did a cloth
i really appreciate your clear and excellent lesson on how to make a dishcloth. i am making it while watching your video! you made it so simple and doable. thumbs up for you.
I absolutely love this lesson it is the best you explain it so well
I started to knit because of Covid. This was the easiest video to learn from .
These were made for me, watching your video makes me think I can make them :) Thank you!
My first dishcloth doesn't look great, but I'm looking forward to trying again.
Your lesson is so easy to follow, thank you!
You are a Awesome teacher , I just finished my first dish cloth thanks a lot 💐
Made it - i love it. I have been doing the same pattern for so long
Thank you for sharing this wonderful tutorial! I made several dish clothes w this pattern. I’m giving them as CHRISTmas gifts!
This is awesome, thank you so much for this information. I've been intimidated learning to do this. I know I can now. Time to get busy
last song of in trousers goes insane!!
Thank you! You explained this so much better than any other video I have tried to learn from. I know how to crochet, but now I can say I know how to knit too!
Very happy I found your channel. I felt comfortable casting on several ways but have had trouble figuring out the knit stitch. I finally got all of my stitches from one needle to the next! That’s progress for me! 😂 now yo try the dishcloth! If it turns out anything like when I started to learn to crochet, it should be comical! But hey,we all have to start somewhere! Thanks for the video!
It wasn't too long ago that I was learning myself and making lopsided pieces 😂The good thing about making a dishcloth is that even if it doesn't look perfect, it's still useful ;) Thanks for watching!
I wish you had more videos on here!! I don't have Twitter nor Instagram so I won't be able to share but this video was very helpful!! Easy step by step, along with the explanation!!
I haven't started the video yet, I'm 11 years old and I wanna knit my grandma a dishcloth before the summer. I dont even know how to get the yarn on the needle yet. I'll update later when I make it!
How did it go
Thanks for sharing this pattern, and your instructions are Awesome, Have a Blessed Day :)
Thank you for the lesson! Haven’t knitted in years and this was a great project to relearn knitting. BTW at the end instead of cutting and weaving the thread right away, I crocheted a chain and slip stitched back into first chain before cutting thread to create a hanger for the dish rag.
I agree. This is an awesome video. Great teacher!!! Any chance of showing how to do a matching dishtowel?
Great teaching, finished a few dishcloths. You were very good at presentiing and describing. Thankyoou
I made a few that came out great! I refer to your video each time to get started or end my dish cloth and your instructions are great! Thank you❤
