Materials:

YARN: 

Any DK cotton; we recommend Erika Knight Gossypium Cotton. Cotton will hold up to
wear better than wool for this project. In your beginner kit, we’ve included enough
yarn to make three washcloths. If you’re not using one of our kits, you will need at least
38 m (42 yds) of yarn per washcloth.
Yarn amounts given are based on average requirements and are approximate.

NEEDLES & NOTIONS:

Size 4 mm (US size 6) straight needles
Tapestry needle for sewing in the ends
Scissors (not included in the kit)

GAUGE:

22 stitches and 30 rows = 4" in stockinette stitch, although matching gauge exactly isn’t necessary for this project

FINISHED DIMENSIONS:

6.5" square (or the size you choose)
