Hello everyone!  I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas!  We sure did and as an extra little present on Christmas Day, the Packers were victorious over the Bears which gave us Packer fans a little extra something to celebrate!  =)  So continue to cheer on the reigning Superbowl Champs and knit up this dishcloth to show off at your next Packer party!

Weave in ends and block, pushing down on stockinette stitches and leaving the purl stitches (so they "pop"). Lay flat to dry.

  1. OMG..here I was excited to find the 2012 one and this is even better to find. I have been married to an AVID Packer fan for almost 25 years, so this is a MUST. Now what are the odds that I can get him to wash the dishes... lol. sue

  5. Thanks so much for sharing with us the wonderful Packers dishcloth pattern!!!

    Just a note FYI... the instructions given in the pattern will not produce the seed stitch border in the photograph, but rather a k1/p1 ribbing. If you want the seed stitch border you see in the photo, you need to change the pattern instructions at the end of Rows 7-70 to read (P1, K1)x2... then you will get the seed stitch border in the photo.

    Kindest Regards,
    OM girl
