Wordless Wednesday: pink lemonade dishcloth
I finished this knitting project last night for my mom. She asked if I would make her a bunch of kitchen dishcloths, which made me really excited. (Maybe she’s just humoring me, LOL!) They’re incredibly fast and easy. Sometime I’d like to try a tip that my friend Marilyn recently told me about. Wal-Mart’s craft department sells this threadlike stuff ~ it’s intended for a ballerina tutu or a wedding gown, to make the material somewhat pouffy. (I’d never heard of it before, but Marilyn bought some that’s green and said that there are different colors.) She holds this thread along with her yarn when she’s knitting a dishcloth, and it makes the dishcloth very scrubby. I felt one of her dishcloths, and it was like an exfoliant! Perfect for scrubbing dried grime off dishes (and probably lots of other household uses). I’m going to find some of that stuff the next time I’m there. One of my next knitting projects will be an Indiana dishcloth, and I’m very excited about that!

Wow!!! What a long way you have come in such a short time! That really looks awesome!
Isn’t this addictive?!
TOTALLY not just humoring….I can’t wait to get them. I’m excited to try them out. In the shower this morning, I thought that one of your wash/dishcloths would feel so good. Love you and thanks again for making these for me. They are so pretty. BTW, my spam word was sparkle!
Wow! You’ve gotten really good! That looks great!
Awesome job!
I’m so jealous because I’ve always wanted to learn to knit! I just can’t seem to find the opportunity.
