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.
Ellen,
Thanks! I can't get anything from our library. It's so small that they don't even have some classic children's books! It's very disappointing. David was able to find this book used somewhere. Maybe Homeschool Classifieds.
Happy Whimsical Hearts,
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Emma,
Thank you! This time of year I crave color. 🙂
Your dish clothes are wonderful, such pretty colours.
What a pretty pattern and such lovely spring colours 🙂
Such beautiful colors and the lighting in your photos is lovely. I've tried to get Karen Andreola's book from our library but with no success so far. I might actually have to break down and buy it.
Lori,
Thank you! I love the bright colors, too. These are great for "knitting therapy!" 🙂
Swanski,
Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving a comment!
Jennifer,
I hope you enjoy making these as much as I have! 🙂
So pretty! I love the coral and yellow colors (my favs). I might start making some dishcloths, I'll need some "knitting-therapy" soon!Blessings,Lori
Thank you for another pattern; I can't wait to try it!
I, too, have made 'many' of the Grandmother's pattern, and am ready for a change 🙂
Your dish clothes are so cheerful! I bet your kitchen is bright and happy now 🙂
Thanks! Don't start them–they're addictive! You should probably be out gardening…I imagine you have been. This weather is making me think about planting something.
Your pictures and your dish clothes are so pretty. Makes me want to knit some even though I've got a multitude of other projects started.
