  3. i have never made a dishcloth but these look like so much fun, but i don't understand the directions. you give directions for a wedge but say knit the whole cloth as one piece. does that mean if you cast on 12 for a wedge, then i would cast on 12X6 (number of wedges to make)? thanks so much for your help.
