Scattered Seeds Dishcloth Knit Pattern

Seeds scattered everywhere, a sign of hope, of fresh starts and renewal. That’s what comes to mind with this pattern. If you garden like I do, it’s not so measured and calculated, rather a scattering of seeds and hoping that something blooms.

But even if you don’t garden or you don’t scatter your own seeds, we can count on nature to do that good work for us. Insects, animals, wind and rain all working together to keep replanting, restarting and making things bloom once again.

The Scattered Seeds Dishcloth is knit flat using seed stitch. It’s an easy to remember and learn stitch pattern that is wonderful for beginners and comforting for seasoned knitters.

Happy knitting!
