Repeat these 16 rows 4x more or till you're happy with length.
Do 5 rows of Knit 1 row, Purl 1 row. (Border)
Bind off with crochet method.
For dishcloth, Cast on 40 pegs, and omit border. (the border is the first and last 5 rows, and the
K3 and P3 at the beginning and end of each row.)
You can also keep going, and make a nice panel for an afghan, or bedspread, or Tablerunner
(in which case I would do 40 pegs)
