True to my word, I made another blossom dishcloth (hot pad to me). This one is for the crayon swap that I am in. I am making my partner lots of red things. I started another one for her yesterday, but I reversed the two solid colors.
I actually found the pattern for this on ravelry so that I can share it with all of you. The original pattern was from one of those freebie patterns in front of the Lily's Sugar'n Cream yarn at Michaels. This is a good stash-busting project. The center doesn't use much yarn. It looks like you can make 2 to 3 of these using the same 3 skeins of yarn.
I made another crochet soda tab bracelet for the swap as well. I used a thinner cotton yarn than I did with the blossom dishcloth. This yarn I actually got from someone in a swap last year. I used an F hook and 12 soda tabs (vs the 14 in the pattern). My swap partner's wrist is the same measurement as mine, so I know that it will fit her. Plus she has daughters, so she can give the bracelets to them if she doesn't want them. I gave the green one that I had made to my 3 year old for St. Patrick's Day. He loves wearing it.
This is darling. Really nice work. I love crocheting.
