I have been stash-busting my cotton yarn like crazy this week.
About 2 years ago I bought this pretty green yarn only to discover that it had a sent built into it. I was sneezing like crazy while working with it. Last night I did better while using it. I just want to get rid of this stuff. I cast on 30 stitches, knit a few rows of garter stitch, then switched to knitting the first and last stitches and doing stockinette in the center (size 7 needles).
Here I cast on 30 stitches once again with size 7 needles and just knit every stitch (48 yards used). I was really into a book, so this was the perfect project to make while I read my book.
I made 5 more spiral dishcloths using my small leftover skeins. Then I made a wavy dishcloth using my friend Cindy's pattern. I stopped when I ran out of yarn. It is a very easy pattern, it looks great, and it is a great dishcloth. I'm currently using another one that I made to wash my dishes with this week. These 6 items were all made on the same night.
