Dish Rags

Filed under: knitting, projects — Jana @ 9:17 am

So when I went to get the sweater for my husband to try on last night, It was still wet, so I will try to take a picture of it tonight. In the meantime I will show you the dish rags I have also been knitting lately.

This one reminds me of mint chocolate chip.

This one reminds me of neapolitan ice cream.

I think one of the reasons I like knitting so much is because of the yarn. Yarn is so addicting. It is like food for the eyes. I think the colors look more like flavors, and if you know me at all, you know I like food. The cropped leaf cardigan I knitted up a while ago reminded me of key lime pie.

I do sort of like the yarn more in a ball, rather than knitted up, but oh well.

I love making dish cloths now. I signed up for dish rag tag, and soon I will be in a race to see who’s team can knit up their dish rags the fastest… another blog craft contest. This is my first one so I am excited. I have been practicing up on my dish rags trying to find the perfect pattern, I don’t know that I have yet, so I better keep searching.

  2. Woo!! I’m in the tag too – can’t wait!! :) I love the diagonal pattern, I’ve used that in some form in many dishrags :) and even though I don’t like pink, I like the neopolitainness of that one….it attracts me :)

  3. I love those dish rags. My mom actually crochet me some the last time she was here, I don’t think you can have enough, I probably need more.
