I tried many, many times to take a good picture of this cloth, but I just couldn't get a good shot of the texture pattern. I wanted to make a cloth for a young male relative's first apartment, and it turned out well. It's a diagonal check pattern, completely reversible, with no border and a slip-stitch edge. Fun to do, with a loop for hanging, since it's my experience that guy's don't know how to drape.
I used Sugar 'n Cream--about 1.5 oz.
Pattern: Guy's Washcloth
Materials: Size 7 straight needles, worsted weight cotton, size G crochet hook for loop.
Slip all st as if to purl.
CO 37 st for smaller cloth, 42 for larger cloth.
Row !: Sl 1, *P1, K4* repeat to last st. K 1.
Row 2: Sl 1, *P3, K2* repeat to last st. K1.
Row 3: Sl 1, *P3, K2* repeat to last st. K1.
Row 4: Sl 1, *P1, K4* repeat to last st. K1.
Row 5: Sl 1, *K1, P4* repeat to last st. K1.
Row 6: Sl 1, *K3, P2* repeat to last st. K1.
Row 7: Sl1, *K3, P2* repeat to last st. K1.
Row 8: Sl 1, *K1, P4* repeat to last st. K1.
Rep these 8 rows 7 times for small cloth, 8 times for larger cloth.
BO, leaving long tail. Insert crochet hook into loop, ch 12, secure to first stitch.
