variegated dishcloths

variegated cloths

I decided to give the african flower dishcloth pattern a try in some variegated yarn. I used Bernat cottons in meadow, jewel and batik. I think the pattern looks better in a solid but these are pretty still.

I gave these to my sister who just moved into her new apartment this weekend, a nice quick gift. While I was over, she gave me a recipe book to write out some recipes for her, I have a couple but would love to find some new ones (for her and for me!). If you have any favorites, please share a link in the comments!

p.s: I'll be posting a pattern for these dishcloths tomorrow!

  2. Great washcloth--can't wait for the pattern.

    I have a great recipe for Cranberry Tea in the CrockPot.

    Also--if you're a fan of black olives and artichoke hearts, this is a really quick and easy delicious meal:

    Here's another CrockPot one for brats or sausage:

    Hope you find some winners! ;-) Happy recipe hunting.

  3. Pretty colours, but your right the varigated yarn does stop you from seeing the pattern of the dishcloth as well.
