More FOs



I have a few more finished objects to show you. These have been knit over the last few months as my stuff-into-the-purse sit-in-the-car-and-wait-for-somebody knitting. So each of them took a while to do, but hey, who's in a hurry?

Yellow and Blue Mason-Dixon-Knitting style ballband dishcloth. Knit from Peaches and Cream in -- surprise -- yellow and blue, on Size 7 bamboo circulars.

Multicolor Garterlac dishcloth, knit in Sugar and Cream "Midnight Magic", also with the Size 7 bamboo circulars.



Baby Genius Burp Cloths, the quintessential Mason-Dixon knitting. Done in various colors of Peaches and Cream and Sugar and Cream. Done on some Size 6 old aluminum circular needles. The back left one is done with solid blue and solid yellow; the middle is done with a solid light blue and a variegated pastel; and the top right was done with two balls of bright variegated color.

Very nice, easy, carry-along knitting for those desperate moments in life when unavoidable boredom threatens to strike.

4 Corners Dishcloth






Pattern: Abigail's Four Corners Dishcloth

Yarn: Sugar and Cream in something variegated.

Needles: Size 7

Once past some initial wonkiness (don't start new patterns late at night after a long day at the office), everything turned into a smooth, simple knitting experience.

Definitely worth repeating. Probably in a smaller needle size for a little firmer knit. The eyelet rows really make this nice.
