Dishcloths of 2010 CAL.....

[nicolep]

Thanks, ladies! The pattern for that one isn't online. It's in one of Lily's pattern books. Here's a link to show you all of the dishcloths in the book.

I'm not sure if it's still available to purchase. I've had it a little over a year. Edited to add - Actually, it is still available. The link has a place to buy online. I bought it in Michael's.

I think might have that book. It looks very familiar. Of course I may have just seen it in a store. Anyhow, thanks for the information.

[tmpinsnty]

thought that looked familiar!! got that book already!!

[nicolep]

The one I posted a picture of earlier is the only one I typically make. I've made all of them at some point, but that one is an old fall back.

I made this for Glenda (oldcountrygirl) for the kit swap. Since she got it today I can post pictures!

I've been meaning to post this picture for a few days. I've made this pattern several times before, but I love how the colors look in this one.

how is everyone on this fine September afternoon?

I'm doin' good! BUSY like crazy!

This last week was parent/teacher conferences... and a really busy weekend!!!

I apologize for not being around lately.......... its been one thing after another!!! Hubby hit a deer with his van and totalled it.... boys have had ball games and practice... conferences... getting passports settled for our Christmas vacation... and getting a tux rented for Patrick for Homecoming this weekend.

 

Hope all is well with everyone here!

love all the pics of everyones work! Wow! busy ladies!

Well... off to get a few things ready to take to the post office on my way to get the boys from school!

you all have a great day!

 

 

I'm so sorry! I managed to miss this post yesterday. I'm so glad DH is all right. That's the most important thing, but I can't help but ask if the deer made it or not.

[teakaycee]

...... Goooooooooood Morning Kids.......

How is everyone this morning?

I'm doin' good. I have a busy day of errands ahead of me.... I need to get stuff to make salad and brownies for the Football team dinner tonight. 42 of them...... They are getting a pasta dinner with salad .. garlic bread and brownies. That should hold them till before bed...LOL

 

Whats everyone up to today?

I have some crocheting that needs to get the finishing touches put on it and mailed out! I need to squeeze that in today!!!

Well........... I'm off.........

you all have a great day! I'll check back in later!

 

 

oh........btw nicole......... not sure how the deer held up... he ran off as soon as hubby hit him.

[nicolep]

Tam - Good about the deer! That means I can believe the deer is fine, too. Like I said, your DH being okay is the most important thing, but I always worry about the animals. I'm sorry the van got totaled though. That really stinks.

[teakaycee]

Good Afternoon kids...........

How has everyone been? Me? BUSY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was Homecoming week this last week here.......... if you want to see some fun pics... you can check out my blog!

 

I hate to make this so short and sweet ..but I need to tend to some laundry and get some crocheting done!

I'll check back in shortly!

Hi, Tam!!! We sure have been quiet around here lately.

I know this is a dishcloth CAL but does anyone have an awesome pattern to make a face cloth. I am making spa baskets to give to the Women's Shelter for Christmas and want to include a facecloth in with the make-up removers (pattern that I made up).

For those of you that have made the flower pot dishcloths, do you use the pattern from Coats & Clark? I really don't like the look of these dishcloths once they are unfolded. I wonder if there's a pattern that would look better.

That's pretty! I'm so slow at knitting that I doubt I could get them all done by 10/29 (it's for a silent auction for a charity). I'm going to have to try it though. Thank you!

[tmpinsnty]

the petal one looks neat!!

The texture looks great, I will have to try to crochet one up and see how long it takes. I want to make at least 10 baskets as that is what they have room for. I hate to think of any woman or child that has to stay in an abuse shelter for the holiday because they have no where else to go. I also plan on making some toys for the children that may be there. I am going to buy a couple 18 " dolls to make clothes for and make up some tic tac toe games.

I just made this as a dishcloth for someone stopping over today, and I love it! Anyway, thought about y'all, of course. I've been crocheting for a shawl swap for a time, so I've not been making dishcloths. I'm starting to need to, though! (((((HUGS))))) sandi

[Lilly Flower]

Thnks for the link! I am working on one right now! Still have 4 more petals left!

That is a cute dishcloth!

[nicolep]

Thanks for posting, Lilly! You reminded me that I have to get my rear in gear on the dishcloth bouquet tonight.

[Lilly Flower]

I still want to do a dishcloth bouquet! They look so pretty! Can you use any dishcloth pattern for it?

[nicolep]

I'm making them for a charity auction. I really don't like the dishcloth from the Coats & Clark website. I've been trying to find something better, but haven't had much luck. I like the one Tam posted, but I'm too slow at knitting. I'm going to definitely make one though (for myself, of course)!

There is a good one called Fire Blossom 9- inch Dishcloth

I use this one and it makes very pretty rose like flowers and works up pretty fast. I have made several of these for Christmas. The site Is http://www.buttonspecialties.com

I'll check that one out. I think I might use the Lily Sugar 'N Cream pattern - Chrysanthemum Dishcloth. I've made it before and it just might work. I'll look at the ideas you posted thought. They might be quicker.
