With my house being filled up to the ceiling with garbage bags and boxes full of things to sell at a garage sale we’re planning in June, which will also include a bake sale, I picked up crocheting again. I haven’t crochet in twenty years or more. I found a website on the internet for a free online dishcloth pattern and I crocheted my first dishcloth today. It took about 4 hrs or so with interruptions, and half way through it I managed to get a uniform stitch going. I did much better this afternoon, compared to when I was in grade three when I kept making shawls and capes for my dolls, because every time I did a scarf they always curled inward. :P
My plan is to sell handcrafted dishcloths at our bake sale. Have them wrapped up with ribbons in coordinating bundles of three and sell them for $6.00 each. I am going to make 100 dish clothes before June 4th and including today I have 59 days to do it! Unfortnately I’m keeping the one I made this afternoon for myself because it is just too bad to part with. Thank goodness the later half was at least 80% better.
If anyone is interested in the pattern I'm using, here is the link http://www.bevscountrycottage.com/dishcloth.html
