A washcloth designed in homage to a popular TV sci-fi series. It is knitted back and forth in rows using the mosaic technique, with knit and slip sts and only one colour in each row.

This Dalek-inspired washcloth is perfect to help you exterminate germs around your home. Instructions on how to knit using the mosaic technique are included in the pattern. The design is fully charted using Stitchmastery software.

It is knitted in Ricorumi Cotton DK and takes 2 balls of the main shade (black) and 1 ball of the contrast (sand). If you are substituting a different cotton DK, you will need approx 65m of the main shade and 45m of the contrast.

“Are fans allowed to create Doctor Who fiction, artwork, videos and performances?

The BBC welcomes and encourages people to use Doctor Who as inspiration for their own original creative works and loves that the brand has so many engaged and passionate fans.

The BBC has no objection to fans creating and publishing their own Doctor Who inspired fiction, artwork, videos, performances or other content, but requests that these:

Take inspiration from Doctor Who, but do not copy a substantial part of the Doctor Who TV programmes or other official Doctor Who content such as scripts, books, magazines, artwork or photography.
Avoid use of the official Doctor Who or BBC logos.
Are not presented in a way as to suggest or confuse viewers into believing that the fan creations are ‘official’ Doctor Who content, or are endorsed by or associated with the BBC, and – where possible – add a clear and visible disclaimer stating that the content is fan-made and un-official, and are the work of an individual or individuals and not an organisation or company.“

This pattern for a Dalek washcloth is fan art (designed and made by me) and un-official, not endorsed by or associated with either the Doctor Who series, or the BBC. I share it for free, so that other fans can make their own.

If you like this design, you may also like Cyberperson washcloth which is also a free pattern. Happy knitting!
