Just One More....

Sorry it's been a bit longer than I had hoped since I posted.  I've had some travel for work that took more energy than I thought it would.  I'll post a picture at the bottom!

Just when I finally thought I was finished with washcloths, a reason popped up to make just one more.  I've started playing along with the Harry Potter Knit/Crochet House Cup on Ravelry and the prompts for one of the July classes was a challenge to go back to our knitting roots.  My grandmother taught me how to knit when I was around 7 or 8 years old.  She taught me how to make a very basic washcloth.  Later in life, a gift she gave to all of her grandchildren was a cookbook with her favorite family recipes in it, and mine also contained a pattern for the washcloth. It was meant to be and I knitted on up.

Washcloth Frenzy

Lately I've been knitting washcloths like a mad woman.  I'm making some as a thank you gift for a co-worker who has been very helpful and these lovely pink ones as a gift for my cousin who just had her first baby girl.  You can find the project on Ravelry here.  Now, I'll have to admit, the photos for this did not turn out very well.  All in all I took 74 photos to get these, so I'm just going with it for this week.

Here is one on the needles, about 2/3 of the way finished.  The pattern is called Soft & Nubby.  Unfortunately I do not have a link to it as it was a handout from my knitting instructor a few years ago who never made the pattern available online.
