Retro Dishcloths



A while back now, Louise, sent with her gorgeous apron, for the apron swap, a beautiful handknitted dishcloth. I didn't really want to use it because it looked so lovely sitting in the beautiful pink apple basket, but my mum convinced me that the handknitted ones were really fantastic to use in the kitchen. Well, I did and now I am convinced that they are the best dishcloths you can get. So, I have got my left over cotton from other projects and have knitted these two beauties. I have actually knitted two others, but these were the ones that actually turned out okay. I am so pleased with the result. So thanks Louise, now, I can't stop knitting these cloths. I highly recommend them - I can't believe how they do such a good job. Maybe our grandmothers did have something way back when!!! I guess that is all they would have had. But the best thing is that now I can colour co-ordinate my kitchen with my dishcloths.!

I was in my garden today as it was such a gorgeous day, playing with my gorgeous puppy, so I snapped a few photos to show you.

A friend of mine said to me the other day ' that when your last one starts school, you either have an affair or get a puppy!!!! I am so glad I have my little puppy.
