Update: I've finished #4 and one stashball has been assassinated. Ha...ha...ha...

I decided to add another ball of stash to complete the cloth b/c w/o it, the cloth was just way too small. So I have a purple and turquoise cloth ready for the usin' ! It kinda looks like a color combo you'd find at ikea ... you know how they have some interesting color combos!

Next on the assassinator's list: NUMBER 5 from the same book. I've already started it and have about 2" done!

I'm using the rest of the turquoise and anticipate the need to add the white stash ball to complete this one. My washcloth shelf is gonna have an assortment of colors on it!!

Ooo Oooo!!! I'm knitting out of that same dishcloth book. I'm over 1/3 of the way through #4 (makin' a couple of 'em for my SIL who just moved), but I haven't had a lot of time to devote to it -- partly 'cause I'm making 5 Boogas and a Pie Are Square Shawl. Hmmm ... it might also have something to do w/ planning a birthday party, teaching my children, and the general run-around of dr's appts we have. Fortunately, all of the projects I'm working on can be toted along.

I do, however, need to do a little Stash Assassination, myself. It's beginning to take over the family room. And I just added two batches of yarn to it!!

What was I thinking???

Man ... what am I doing on here!!??

Have you guys seen THIS SITE with a MILLION (well, 5 pages, anyway) FREE dishcloth patterns? I hate to think of y'all spending your yarn money on patterns if ya dont need 'em!!

ekgheiy · 08-25-2005, 05:46 PM

Oh GREAT!!! More choices??? :rollseyes: There are 16 patterns in this book and I had a hard time decided on *them*; now you give me more choices??

I'm not all bent about having bought my book. It's retail is $4.50 and I used a coupon 'cause I almost never pay full price for anything ...

Oh, yeah, I've seen that site. It made my head spin, and I saved several of them off to my hard drive. However, I also had a gift certificate for Hobby Lobby. They just looked like fun, too. I think I just needed a finite set to choose from, plus there are some challenging patterns in there that I've learned a lot from. Good practice.
