I found a new dishcloth pattern! Dare I say that I like it better than the other one? This one requires a little more concentration than the other one, but it isn’t hard. It was fun to see a new pattern emerging from the needles. And the really great thing about this pattern is that it can also be used to make a scarf! I used a long-tail cast-on, and it turns out very nice.

I’m currently reading Lessons at Blackberry Inn, by Karen Andreola. It’s a nice change from all the non-fiction books I’ve been reading. I’m also reading Health for Godly Generations, which I plan to review here pretty soon. This book has been inspiring me to renew my efforts at healthy eating and living, which had kind of gone by the wayside lately in all the busyness of life. In the photo below, I have a pile of books, a notebook, my organizer, my daily docket on a clipboard, and some homeschool catalogs. Yes, life is happily busy.
Really like these washcloths and flowers….a new follower….
Thank you again for your nice comment on the Flower Birthday Card..

Thank you, Lisa!
My first introduction to knitted dishcloths was from my husband's grandmother. She had a friend who made them, and she would buy them from her for gifts. She gave us some with her wedding gift, and then she gave me several more throughout the years.
Now that my husband's grandma has passed away, I have to make them myself! I'm thinking it's about time to teach my older daughter to make them. 🙂
You do beautiful work, both knitting and photographing!
My mother in law used to make me 6 new dishcloths for every birthday and every Christmas because she knew I loved them so. She tried to teach me to knit and crochet and one of us gave up, I'm not sure which! lol
I still have some of the dishcloths she made me but need some new ones. I look at craft shows but they don't seem to be the "in" thing.
You're welcome, Gail! I love those colors, too. 🙂
Joy, thank you! I love the blues and greens of that color!
Blessings!

Thank you, Gail! I believe the blue and green one is called "Country Stripes," and you can see it on this page:
