I brought at spotlight a ball of pink 50% cotton 50% acrylic to use to attempt to make my own dishcloths and even think about gifting them for Christmas (or keeping them for us)
The awesome thing about craft nights is there is someone sitting next to you who knows what they are doing and can read the pattern. I made a start....
Feeling proud that it looks like the pattern in the book!!
Got this far and got stuck on the last round....
And finished it!
and then kept making them......nearly at the end of the ball
Three finished dishcloths. I used a size 2.5 hook (pattern recommends a size 4) so this is great they are not too small and I can get more than one from a ball..... makes me want to do the dishes now and I'm really like the bright pink option for a dishcloth- its just so happy and fun!
Hoping to see what other colours I can get and even try the silk/cotton mix and even branch out and see what other patterns I can attempt to follow!
You totally rocked this!
ReplyDeleteI used a 4mm hook and got 2 out of a ball of organic cotton
Cotton Bamboo is an awesome mix for dishes too
LOVE the hot pink
they look awesome!
ReplyDeleteSo cool! I've used the bamboo/cotton for dishcloths before and they work amazing. They don't leave streaks on stainless steel benchtops either. Love the bright pink!
ReplyDeleteCool pattern!
ReplyDeleteI need to get me some decent yarn!
