Hello!
We are starting two weeks of school holidays here, so looking forward to a break in our usual routines, hopefully we will have a lot of fun days, relaxing doing what we like.
This morning I sat down and weaved all the ends in on my little washcloths. It was time for some photos! So here they are, humble washcloths, little woollie style!
A couple of these have already found a new home, far away across the ocean, how exciting!
**Thanks to my very obliging helpers here, a little glimpse *behind the scenes* at our headquarters. :)
(Although it turned into a bit of a tug of war with washcloths flapping around all over the place very soon after this was taken:) )
Anyway, I am pretty happy with how these turned out, very easy, and I think a cute present with some nice soap or something like that. A good start to my Handmade Christmas effort.
What have you been up to this weekend?
Had some fun times?

(ps. A few lovely people were wondering how to to the dotty pattern, I will try and clean up my scribbles and post a photo of the dot graph for the tapestry crochet technique:) )
Edited to add: I now have a pattern available for these washcloths as well as the hearts and clouds ones. If you are interested they are for sale on Ravelry over here!

Very creative and beautiful wash clothes. Hugs Judy
ReplyDeleteThese are without a doubt the coolest wash cloths I have ever seen! I love your behind the scenes, I always struggle with photos and now I realise I just need to have a couple of kids & let them get old enough to hold things for me :p
ReplyDeleteLove them!
ReplyDeletethese are so pretty-- I'd put them up for decorations!
ReplyDeleteI love these wash cloths! I have been thinking of making some to try out new stitches and use up yarn. Yours are so cute!
ReplyDeleteI've made one because I was so inspired, and it cheered me up. Mine is not perfect but there is always next time. You must be a machine to churn out so many cloths so quickly - it took me the better part of the day to make my little square and imperfectly may I add. Id include a photo but I dont know how. Ive redirected anyone who interested in making these back to your site.xox thanks Monique
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute. And I love the colors of yarn you have. I can only get a few bright colors at Hobby Lobby.
ReplyDeleteAyudantes muy atentos con tus pequeñas toallas

ReplyDeleteOh these really stole my heart and I am always feeling ever so happy when you design spotty dotty things! xxx
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Smile! These are sooo sweet! Thanks for sharing! I will have to try some! Greetings from Claudia in Germany
ReplyDeleteI have started making most my presents lately since learning to crochet a couple years ago. It started bit by bit. Now that I am getting better and better, my goal is for all my presents to be home made. It saves us a lot of money, it's good for the enviroment since I get most of my yarn from thrift stores and yard sales and homemade gifts are from the heart. I just started making things for Christmas. I made my son a crocheted puppet that turned out super cute, and right now I am planning on making a star for the top of the tree, and some Christmas stockings. I am having so much fun!
ReplyDeletePlease could you share with me how you made these....?
ReplyDeletePlease could you e-mail me at rustyhookstoo@yahoo.com with any help you can lend me. Thank you so so very much.
Sincerely Eileen
