I finished a fan and feather pattern dish cloth tonight while watching Mr. Brooks:
Cotton yarn and size 4.5mm knitting needles
Cast on 42 stitches (or a multiple of 18 plus 6)
Knit 3 rows of garter stitch for the border
Row 4: Knit
Row 5: K 3, P to last 3 stitches K3
Row 6: K3, *(K2 tog) 3 times, (yo, K1) 6 times, (K2 tog) 3 times, rep from * to last 3 sts K3
Row 7: Knit
Repeat Rows 4 - 7, keeping first and last 3 stitches in garter stitch, until piece measures desired length
Knit 3 more rows of garter stitch to make the bottom border
Cast off and darn in ends

Always wanted to take up knitting. Still haven't found the time or the skill. Love the dish cloth.
