If you were to ask me what my home decor style is, I would say modern with farmhouse/rustic accents here and there to add a touch of coziness. It is this look that I had in mind when I started to design The Farmhouse free knitted dish towel pattern.
These beginner friendly dish towels are not only stunning to have on display in your kitchen, but they give off a cozy, inviting vibe. And best of all, they are an environmentally friendly alternative to paper towels. So you can knit these up and feel good for doing your part to save our beautiful planet!
My yarn choice for these towels was Knit Picks Dishie Worsted Weight Yarn.
Dishie is one of my go to yarns for washcloths and dish towels because they have an incredible colour palette to choose from, and the price can’t be beat for the quality. I have dish cloths from years ago that still look like new every time they come out of the wash. It is honestly so worth it to get excellent quality cotton when making your own dish towels if you want them to work well and last a long time.
