Valley Yarns Petite Dish Cloths are sweet little squares and are ready to serve anywhere - wiping counters, acting as trivets and coasters, scrubbing dishes and more. An excellent introduction to Deflected Doubleweave, the 2-color design is simple to thread and weave and includes detailed directions for handling the selvedges of the different layers of cloth. A 3-yard warp will give you enough for seven dishcloths; throw on a warp and have a stack of host/hostess gifts in no time.
