Welcome
to the 2nd installment of our Dishcloth CAL.
Erin’s Dishcloth brings
us a simple, yet effective texture. Not all texture is bulky or layered.
Sometimes, just a combination of basic stitches can result in a beautiful and
textured fabric. This dishcloth uses only the humble single and double crochet
stitches. It’s the combination and position of them that make all the
difference. This cloth provides just enough texture for some heavy dishpan
action, as well as being so lovely to look at. Take a go at it – it’s a breeze
to work up!
This
dishcloth is named after my lovely DIL – Erin, who is enjoying her first round
at motherhood. I say “first round” because, well – I am a granny after all. ๐๐
