Also finished this dishcloth recently.

My mum asked for some knitted dishcloths, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to go through my Vogue Knitting Stitch Dictionary book and practice some of the neat patterns showcased in there. :) This one is called "Eyelet Blocks" with a garter stitch border, and an added i-cord loop for hanging.

🧶🧶🧶 New WIP!! Just started making the BonBon mitts now for my old roommate here at the nursing home. She wants them in white just like the pattern shows.

Cute pattern, and free! Using gifted yarn, not sure from who. No belly band, but feels like maybe a wool-synthetic blend...?

So happy to have something fresh to work on, while I also knit the final sleeve on Mom's sweater. Onward!

Hmm. This sounds distinctly like a need for a #flag of #Canada #Sweater #Knitting pattern challenge. <throws down the mitten> Hear this, #KnittingPattern #design ers?

I will have a top-down #BabySweater #cardigan version online shortly. I will need some folks to test-kni it. I may even be able to send #yarn.

🧶🧶🧶 Swatching! Why?

For my elderly roommate here at the nursing home, who spends most of her time curled up in a ball under blankets, isolated.

I offered to knit her slippers. These will be the Nordic Slippers, a simple pattern with lace detail at the ankle. Yellow is her fave color, and I sourced this gorgeous yarn in stash. No band, but it feels like wool - very expensive wool! Deserving!

A KnitPicks order arrived yesterday, so I cast on a couple new projects. A cowl, a washcloth, and a "soap sock".

Knit the soap sock (first two pics) in a single night, which was nice! Even though I made many mistakes and it was really just kind of bodged together. Still, it'll get the job done! It's just going to hang out in my shower, it doesn't have to be perfect. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

The third pic is the washcloth in the same yarn, KP's Dishie 100% cotton in Goldfish. I'm liking how the colours are pooling in a kind of chevron pattern across the cloth! ^^

No pictures of the cowl yet, I might try redoing it… using two gradient-coloured yarns in stripes, but they both start at white, so you can't see any difference in the stripes, yet. x___x I might try unravelling and re-wrapping a ball to get the gradient switched around and knit it that way, just so I can see the differences.

The (free) Soap Sock pattern is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PEL_L4zot6DL1hL7a7YYBqRbvmvWPrpS/view
