Notes: Slipped Stripes dishcloth is a fun and easy knit. The stitch
pattern is easy to memorize, and, while not reversible, looks great
on both sides. It can easily be resized to fit your needs, and
would make a thoughtful hostess gift.

To resize, cast on a multiple of 3+2, and knit to desired length.
