Dishcloths


Dishcloths are instant gratification. You can start one and finish one in the same day. I really enjoy both knitting and crocheting dishcloths. I am on a knit dishcloth thing at this time. I found a Leisure Arts pattern book at Hobby Lobby on Saturday Garden Dishcloths to Knit, by Melisa Bergland Burnham. Today I finished Sunflower I used Lily Sugar' N Cream cotton yarn in SunShine in the pattern the color they used was Maize. I am moving on sometime this week to Ladybug and then on to the weekend and I plan to start my 3rd Magic Scarf for a woman at work she liked the pattern when I show her my 2nd Magic Scarf. I will post a picture of the scarf as soon as I finish weaving the ends on the 2nd scarf. Previous post on the needles shows the unfinished 2nd Magic scarf. 3 days until the weekend.

Frog Dishcloth

Well the only thing I have to show for my long weekend. A knit Frog dish cloth I chose the color Hot Green the designer used Light Sage. I started working on it Sunday afternoon and finished about 2:00 am Monday morning. The office was closed today MLK Holiday. Saturday was very cold and I spent the most of the day watching it snow and watching tv. Here in this part of NC we hardly ever get snow and it was only a dusting maybe 1" here in Asheboro but it was pretty never the less. I did just a little knitting and some wine drinking. Sunday was sunny but cold and I made a pot of chili. I am currently working another dishcloth. The dishcloth patterns are from Leisure Arts #3934 Garden Dishcloths to Knit.
