…getting back into it…

6 Aug

…three weeks vacation (from work AND renovating) kickstarts craftiness…

and somehow i didn’t want to pick up any unfinished business, and instead started knitting dishcloths for my new kitchen…. :) The classic ballband dishcloth of course, this time knitted in Paris from Garnstudio. 4 mm needles.

yarn: mandarin classic
needles: 3,5 mm
finished size: 21 x 21 cm
pattern: flying geese

i did change the pattern a bit, mine don’t look like flying geese…
and this last one is of course my favorite because it’s reversible!! (anyone know any reversible patterns, let me know – i like’em!)

yarn: two strands of safran from garnstudio

colours: green/pink – orange/pink

needles: top one 5 mm - bottom one 4 mm
