Over the last month I was able to crochet in small bursts and took the opportunity to make some Christmas gifts, mainly washcloths and scrubbies!
| Bumpy Scrubbie |
This one didn't make the gift pile I had to test it to see of the cotton die ran, It didn't but it made a wonderful scrubbie for my kitchen. Pattern here
| Custard Pie dishcloth |
This washcloth was quick and I made up the scrubbie to go with it. Pattern here
| Happy Discloth |
This was made out bamboo cotton and felt so luxurious that I gave it to my sister as a spa cloth and scrubbie, I made the scrubbie up by using rounds of popcorns and did a simple backing that I joined in the middle and edges.
Pattern for the cloth here.
I also started to knit for a change. Dishcloths again!!
I made this one up and the back is rougher so I decided it would make a great face cloth. I crochet the edges too, cant keep away from that hook!
This year I hope to concentrate on doilies and blankets, I've decided to join the block a month cal group on Ravelry and over the year I should hopefully complete 2 to 3 blankets.
So my dear friends have a great New Year and I hope all that you wish for comes.
Happy New Year to you! Glad that you are back in swing. Your dishclothes and scrubbies are beautiful.

ReplyDeleteHello Zana. I seriously thought I had left you a comment on this post but - as usual - must've imagined it. I adore your washcloths, they are just beautiful. I am now hooked on using them instead of dishcloths, they last so well & do such a great job. Its wonderful to have you blogging again too.
ReplyDeleteHappy New year Zana I'm glad your surgery is over and done with and you can get back to crafting again, love your dishcloths and scrubbies. :) xx
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your wrist problems. I have pain in my left hand quite often due to an old thumb injury. That whole joint is out of whack especially if I work with small cotton and hook, which I try not to do often. You still managed to make lots of nice gifts. Wishing you a happy, creative year. :) Tammy
ReplyDeleteGlad your wrists are better now . Washcloths or pot holders seem the best sort of makes so as not to overtax your wrist problem. Lovely colours and ages since I've done any but seeing yours is giving me the itch to start making a few. I love the fact they are quick to do.
ReplyDeleteA very happy New Year to you and yours
