AI Created a Dishcloth Pattern

Posted by on

 

I had asked Microsoft Copilot to create a dishcloth pattern using three stitches. What it created did not make sense to me. Lately I had asked it to to create a pineapple bag. That too was a disaster. It did however give me existing patterns to check out.  However, I think AI is here to stay. It has already helped me out in creating blog posts and I have made some pretty cool art.  Back to the dishcloth pattern, I came up with a pattern I THINK Microsoft Copilot was trying to make.

Here is my pattern:
Materials:
Worsted-weight cotton yarn (about 50 grams)
Size G/ 4-4.5 mm
Yarn needle 
Scissors 
Foundation row: Chain 30, sc in the second chain from hook, hdc in the same stitch, *skip 1 ch, (sc,hdc) in the next stitch * repeat until you are at the last 2 stitches, skip 1 ch, sc in the last ch, ch 1 and turn

Row 1: (hdc, dc) in the first stitch,*skip the next stitch, (hdc,dc) in the next stitch* repeat until you are at the last 2 stitches, skip the next stitch, hdc in the last stitch. Ch 1 and turn 

Row 2: (sc, hdc) in the first stitch, *skip 1 ch, (sc,hdc) in the next stitch * repeat until you are at the last 2 stitches, skip 1 ch, sc in the last ch, ch 1 and turn
Repeat rows 1-2 until you have a square, or desired height.Border: sc evenly around, 3 sc in the corner stitches, finish off.
If you want to adapt this pattern into a blanket, scarf or shawl, make the foundation chain an even number.
