Dish Cloth - its finished

Yep I finally finished my first dishcloth :D

After pulling it out and restarting about 6 times, I finally persevered and finished it.

Even though it is now made up of different colours and textures, its done!

Even though I somehow doubled my stitches, I got it sorted and its done!

So, this is probably the ugliest little dishcloth you've ever seen but it is special, cause its my first. But, I'm glad its done!

Dish Cloths - Part 2


Okay, with a little more research, I'm fairly confident on how to do the original pattern I found. I was a bit confused with the YO direction in the pattern. I had to look up exactly what that meant.

My one I'm doing now won't have the fancy edge unless I crochet one after I'm finished (which I will probably do) but it will look pretty none-the-less due to the varigated cotton I'm using.

Don't you enjoy knowing that I knit?

Go on, sure you do hahahahahaha

1 ball of knit cotton
