Thanks everyone for your support of our custom knits.  We look forward to 2024 being a great year here at The Knit Tree.   As Sharon Nani, owner, prepares for retirement, she is training her son, Ken to knit the items in the online store, plus the ones that were removed.  Ken is going to take over The Knit Tree and its equipment so we can continue to offer these unique custom knits to our customers. Ken is not new to machine knitting - he earned his high school and college spending money by filling orders back in the 1990's, and has continued to help in maintaining the equipment.  Ken is creative in his own rights with his "Custom Wood and Land Works" business where he falls the timber, prepares the lumber and creates unique wood items and projects: custom storage sheds, fences, decks ect.  So we may add new catagories to this web site when the time arrives.  SO LOOK FORWARD TO ADDING THE CAMO KNITS BACK INTO THE ONLINE STORE THIS YEAR.

Cotton Dish Rag Cloth hand knit Patterns written by Sharon Nani. Three patterns are included for Fisherman Rib, Racked Rib, and Vertical Stripes of Fisherman Rib with Racked Rib. These patterns assume the knitter knows how to form a knit and a purl stitch, basic cast on and basic bind off.

Our popular Cotton dish rags knit by the Little Knitters get requests for the knitting pattern as well. So this knitting pattern is finally being shared with you! Yarn Kits with the cotton yarn are also available with or without the pattern in our Yarn Kits Show Room!

It starts with the beginner Fisherman Rib Dish Rag, then advances to the same dish rag in a racking rib pattern. Finially it tests your creativity by striped pattern with both fisherman rib and racked rib combine and a scallop hem tip.

Sharon knit the sample dish rags by hand and on both the Passap DM80 (E6000 follows same directions without the console) and the Brothers Standard Gauge knitting machine with Silk Cities Softball 2.2 Cotton and Bonnie Triola's Double Spiral Cotton / Acrylic yarn.

Yarn kits with enough yarn for all three dishrags are in the yarn kits show room.

Sharon Nani has been writting instructional patterns and knitting programs for schools, industry, and magazines for over 30 years. Watch for more of her patterns coming to this online store.

This is the second pattern that she teaches "The Little Knitters", they love the simplicity and the creative choices that it gives them - and I'm sure you'll love it too!!

Remember we are sharing this treasured pattern with you for your personal pleasure, knit them for gifts, for yourself, or they make great shower gifts or donations for fund raising events.
