Little Dishcloths

My daughter-in-law mentioned that she would like some smaller sized dishcloths similar to Messy Karen's Wavy Wipers.  I really enjoy making dishcloths, so I pulled out some self striping green cotton yarn and started knitting. The cable cloth on the right is a smaller version of the Cable Spa/Dishcloth that I made a couple of weeks ago.  The cloth in the center is knit in a simple basket weave pattern.  The cloth on the right actually started out as a wavy wiper, but I used larger needles than the pattern calls for, so I only made two waves instead of three.  All of these dishcloths are about 5 inches square...just the right size for wiping up little spills!
