Getting back in the swing of things

Published by Jamie at 7:54 pm under Knitting

I first started knitting in January of this year. I was inspired after my mother-in-law started making me scarves. I don’t think I’d ever even owned a scarf until she knitted me one. I love them now though and decided it’d be cool to make my own. So I started knitting. I was going strong for a few months. I knitted a scarf, a few cat toys, and a dishcloth. It probably would’ve been more, but I think I may be the slowest knitter in the world. I then took a few months off from knitting while getting ready to and then finally moving. Now that I’m all settled in, I’ve started again. I’m working on another scarf and another dishcloth.

Chinese Waves Dishcloth

Chinese Waves Dishcloth

Pattern: Chinese Waves Dishcloth by Margaret K.K. Radcliffe
Yarn: Cotton Ease in Stone
Needle: 9 ( size 7 is recommended, but I am a super tight knitter)

This is a fun, quick knit and useful to boot. I need to make a whole pile of these so I can throw away my storebought dishcloths. I hate them. :|

    Where is my scarf?
    I don’t know if a knitted dishcloth would be a good idea :)
