All-American Cloths...

I apologize for the lateness of this pattern. I've been a little distracted with the move and other family situations. I was really hoping to finish everything earlier. Tragically, we lost our dear friend, John Lanzone, last Tuesday to a bad reaction from prescription drugs. He was only 30 years old and if you can, please say a prayer for his family during this very difficult time.

I've been keeping busy with lots of knitting. From all of this rain we've been having, I've kept the camera hidden. I did knit up the Wedding cloths this week but still need to photograph and create the pdf file.

I think I'm going to start the Beach set next and get that done before the first snow. :0)
I have a lot of emails to get to this week. If you wrote me please be a little patient, I will get to every message within the next few days. Thank you to everyone who is following this blog and for all of the wonderful comments you leave. They help make me create these great patterns.

I made each written pattern with a corresponding chart for the dishcloth. From the sets that I've already made, I've managed to get about 2-2½ cloths out of one ball of Lily's Sugar'n Cream Solid Yarn. Though you can use any kitchen cotton you prefer.

I'm still going to write a FAQ blog post on these dishcloths in a few days so be sure to check back for some helpful hints. Happy Summer everyone!
