Warm up your
hooks for our 7th dishcloth of the Spring Cleaning Dishcloth CAL
2019!
This week we’ll
incorporate more post stitches and work them into clusters. By careful
positioning of your stitches, we will create lovely textured columns. I love
the look of this stitch pattern. With only a two row repeat, it’s simple enough
to be able to watch your favorite TV show, but looks very intricate.
This dishcloth
is named for a moderator of my Ravelry group, Terry. Terry always offers
advice, encouragement and friendship. When she’s around, we enjoy her
company, and she leaves us with a smile on our face. I hope you enjoy stitching
Terry’s Dishcloth – it will make you smile.
PRIZES: Cascade Yarns has generously donated
some Nifty Cotton Yarn for prizes this year. This is the same yarn that I've
used in all 8 dishcloth designs, and it is soooo nice. You won't want to miss
