I am looking for a pattern of a dish/wash cloth. Knitted with an ACORN pattern, or a LEAF pattern on it.

Any help? I have tried looking, see many patterns for dish cloths but not with a Fall theme, let alone one with an Acorn or a Leaf pattern

Thanks gals

I looked online, too, and didn't find anything either. BUT I have an idea that might work for you...

Find a clipart of an acorn or leaf. On graph paper, chart out your number of stitches using x's for the pearls and leaving the squares blank for the knits. Find the center of your piece, and fill in x's to make your acorn. I just did one from knittinknonsense.com of a turtle that you could use as a guide. It had a garter stitch border with a stockinette stitch center, and a garter stitched turtle in the middle. Just remember after your first few rows of knit only (your bottom border) that every other row is knit only. Check out the turtle pattern, and this will all make more sense.

Please post a photo of what you come up with, and best of luck!

I've done this for counted cross-stitch several times. Oh, or you could use a simple cross-stitch pattern.
