Hanging in there

The wash cloths are still works in progress. I went out bought several balls of cotton yarn with the Michael's gift card I got for Christmas. My that came in REALLY handy. The layette set is almost complete. I have several totes to felt. I haven't knitted a pillow in a while so that will be one of my spring projects along with learning how to knit socks. I am presently "stuck" on my practice sock at the gusset.
March is nigh, so I am going to have to discipline myself to *sigh* set aside the knitting and get down to finishing my National Board entries. (Boy that was hard to type!)

Wash Cloths

Wash or dish cloths are good projects to practice different knit stitches. Plus I wanted to work in a yarn other than wool or acrylic. For example, my first wash cloth was done in moss stitch. I was ready to do a second one using trinity stitch except I couldn't figure out how to work the stitch pattern. I'll be asking someone at Knit n Knibble on Thursday. I settled for divided boxes. I will post a pic after I've done four or five.
