These make really cute gifts :) I got the idea from my grandma, They used to be really popular gifts years ago There is a poem that goes along with it: Now don't get excited, Don't be misled, These aren't for you, But for the dishes instead. Just pull on the bows, Take out the stitches, You've gained 2 dishcloths, But you've lost your britches!

These make really cute gifts :) I got the idea from my grandma, They used to be really popular gifts years ago There is a poem that goes along with it: Now don't get excited, Don't be misled, These aren't for you, But for the dishes instead. Just pull on the bows, Take out the stitches, You've gained 2 dishcloths, But you've lost your britches!

Instructions

  1. Knit two dish clothes, I used the pattern I found on the packaging http://www.bernat.com/pattern.php?PID=243

  2. Fold them both in half with the open ends facing each other

  3. Take your ribbon and thread it through the top of the dishcloths using a darning needle or a crochet hook. Tie a bow when you get to the end :)

  4. Thread ribbon through both of the legs and tie with a bow. Thread ribbon through the middle of the legs so it stays together easier :)
