Shell Border Dust Cloth

Super Simple, Super Easy!

I dont know about you guys but dust really bothers me, to see it irritates me and not to mention what it does to my allergies! The worst thing is when you dust and it just flies everywhre….UGH! So one day when i was cleaning and i had this half made project that i started and honestly had no intention of finishing (dont give me grief we all have those!) So i picked it up and used it to dust and to my surprise it was awesome! So i decided to share the love and not only does this make a fantastic dust cloth, it is super simple to make and i am excited for this! This pattern is really great for beginners because you do three different stiches but you repeat them so it gives you practice and its a dust cloth so there is no need for it to be pretty other than the fact that who doesnt like pretty things!!I used Caron Simply Soft and an H hook. I find that the Caron Simply Soft yarn picks up the dust and holds it so you dont get as much of the dust flying all over, but you could literally probably use any yarn. I did not do a gage for this pattern becasue i didnt think there was much of a use for one. 
Pattern :
