My 🦢 SWAN dishcloth is a very easy knitting pattern, perfect for beginners. It's very quick and fun to knit, and has the same characteristics (number of rows, stitches, etc) that all the blocks of my "52 Square Pickup" (https://www.etsy.com/listing/748658554/dishcloths-knitting-pattern-collection), "Numbers" (https://www.etsy.com/listing/752323218/numbers-series-collection-plus-asterisk) and "Alphabet" collections.
You can use this pattern to make washcloths, dishcloths, pot holders, placemats... Also join some of them and make your first blanket project. The possibilities are endless!!
