1st Washy!

In my yarn gathering missions a few weeks ago I spotted some beautiful cotton yarn that I just couldn't bring myself to leave at the shop.

And since cotton is not only nice to work with but also completely machine washable I thought I would try out a washcloth. Also... I need a new face-cloth (as we call them back home).

What do you think?


The pattern is one from 200 Crochet Blocks, with a few more rounds of double-crochet around the border to make it a more usable size.


I'm sorry I don't remember what type of cotton it was but I used a 3mm hook. A pretty new baby peach one! Awww. I heart my new hook.


I haven't tried it out on the old face'ola yet but I will. I loved making this one, so pretty and so quick! I think I am going to make another one tonight as a hostess-gift for my friend L who is having a St Paddy's day breakfast tomorrow in Hoboken. Yes, they celebrate St. Patrick's Day early in Hoboken. Do not know why.

Have a great weekend everyone!
