Mostly because we needed new dishcloths, but I also liked the idea of having a colour for each day. An easy way to remind myself to change to the next one! And they are pretty! The other reason is because I love knitting, but find it hard to work on a bigger project at the moment. Having to set my knitting down regularly. So I wanted a project that was simple. The pattern I am using is called Grandmother’s Favorite (a free pattern on Ravelry). It is super simple and quick to knit up. I’m using cotton yarn from Knit Picks. I used a few different types because I was most interested in getting the colours I wanted. I used Shine Worsted Yarn, Comfy Worsted Yarn and Dishie Yarn. The texture you get from cotton yarn and this pattern works really well as a dishcloth. And over time the dishcloths hold their shape well. I’m off to finish up green now, then I will be onto blue and white *grin* You can read about the colours of the day here and see how we have used them for our rhythm […]
