I used 4.5mm needles, with Farmablefibres 100% Cotton yarn, and my gauge came out to 16 st/4 inches before washing & blocking, and a dish cloth that is 7.5 x 7.5 inches.
Cast on 30 stitches.
Work 4 rows of moss stitch.
Work 35 rows with 4 stitches of moss stitch at the ends, and stockinette stitch in between (about 6.75 inches from beginning at this point).
Work 4 rows of moss stitch.
Bind off in moss stitch pattern until you have 3 stitches left, and work these 3 stitches in moss stitch.
Work an i-cord on these stitches for about 3 inches, then pull yarn through stitches & tie off; sew end of i-cord to cloth to make a loop.
