MOD KNIT JACQUARD LEAVES KITCHEN TOWEL SET~Pattern; Castle Rock-WA: (https://roadgypsiesvalandholland.blogspot.com/2026/09/mod-knit-jacquard-leaves-kitchen-towel.html)

… so, I made this large sized, striped, cotton towel to drape over dishes drying in the drainer … or draped over a cooling loaf of challah.

Materials: 1 skein Cotton Yarn in 3 colors of choice (or plain); #10-1/2 American needles; scissors; tapestry needle. 

Stitches Used:

CO = cast on

st st = Row 1: K across. Row 2: P across.

With Black Currant yarn, CO 75 sts and work 6 g st rows (3 ridges). DO NOT CHANGE COLOR. Work an additional 4 rows in st.st.
