We love slip stitches because they make easy things look difficult, and we love handmade dishtowels because they make unpleasant tasks seem kind of fun. Our Slip Stitch Dishtowels in Cotton Pure check both boxes!
As complicated as these Dishtowels may look to make, there’s actually nothing fancy going on here. You knit every row with just one color, so as long as you can knit and purl, you can make them. And as long as you have dishes to dry and tables to wipe, you can use them, too!
We followed the pattern from our original Slip Stitch Dishtowels to knit this new set in Purl Soho’s Cotton Pure. A little heftier and a little softer, these are just as absorbent and beautiful. Our Slip Stitch Dishtowels Bundles will get you started, available in this pretty natural palette, plus two more!
