If you are handy with some knitting needles, these little cloths take no time at all to make and are wonderful for new babies. They can also be great gifts, and I encourage you to find some brightly coloured, all-cotton yarn. You can make them larger or smaller by increasing the number of stitches you cast on. And I love the texture of the double moss stitch. Use needles advised by the yarn you buy. I used 4mm.
Cast on 39 stitches.
Knit six rows.
+ First row: Knit 4 then knit 1/purl 1 until last 4 stitches, which you knit.
Second row: Knit 4 then purl1/knit1 until last 4 stitches, which you knit.
Third row: Knit 4 then purl1/knit1 to last 4 stitches, which you knit.
Fourth row: Knit 4 then knit 1/purl1 to last 4 stitches, which you knit +. From + to + forms the pattern which you repeat until you have nearly made a square. Finish off with another six rows of knit and cast off.
