Sometimes it is just fun to take a detour and whip up a quick project.
That's exactly how this dishcloth came to be. I was riding shotgun while DH and I ran errands and the other project that is currently on my needles is too intense for car knitting. This is the Hearts and Flowers pattern from "Trendy Knit Dishcloths", made with scraps of Sugar 'n Cream Twists. Fun, fast, and practical (and I needed a new dishcloth - somehow my supply had been depleted).
Mr. Mailman brought me a package this week. Sock blockers!!
Pesky as the real things may be, I think the squirrel silhouette is cute. I need to get busy making some new socks to block on these boards. These are an old Firestarter and Seduction.
Mr UPS brought me a big package, too, but I'll save that surprise for another post.
Happy Knitting! I know there is no shortage of patterns... I'm busy, busy, busy editing new patterns. ::sigh:: Sometimes I have to steal a little bit of time to knit, too. : )

Gotta love instant gratification knitting.
Cute sock blockers and socks.
Those little squirrels are adorable!
Hi! I love your dishcloth that you made. I am new to knitting and was wondering if you could recommend what type of yarn to use for dishcloths?
Any help would be great! Thanks
Most folks use either Peaches and Cream or Sugar and Cream for dishcloths. they are both pretty cheap in chain stores, and considering what they are used for, why spend more $$ on high-end cotton!?!
P.S. Belated happy birthday! : )
