Ballband Hanging Dishtowel

BALLBAND HANGING TOWEL

This pattern is multiples of 6 + 3

I cast on 75

I follow the Ballband pattern http://www.peaches-creme.com/Ballband%20Dishcloth.htm

until i had the towel about 13 inches long
decrease row on a knit row… Or Rights side Row
also during this process the row does not come out evenly..but I just really wing it..I think that I probably would have added a couple more rows so the top was bigger by adding in a all knit row a couple of times in between the purl rows

Row 1:* K2 ,k2tog* across

Row 2: K2, P across, K2
Row 3:*K2, K2tog ,K2* across
Row 4: K2 ,P across,K2

Row 5: *K2,K2tog* across
Row 6: K2, P across,K2
Row 7: *K2,K2tog* across
til there are 10 stitches left

this is where u need to decide if you want knit row when flap is folded over.

If so reverse what u were doing..knit side on wrong side then pearl rows on

right side ..on the below directions



Row 1:k2 ,p across ,k2
Row 2: knit…
did these 2 rows till lenght i wanted tab

Row 4 K2 p across k2.
