In the past two days I've knitted two dishrags. One taken from this pattern and another I improvised myself.
Here's my interpretations of the Morning Glory Washcloths, done with size 3 needles because two days ago I didn't have long enough size seven needles. That has been fixed since then though. :p
The design I improvised from the Morning Glory Washcloth pattern came out better, in my opinion. Probably because I get irritated making all the little holes.
I still cast on 40 sts. but then I did garter stitch for three rows then added steps 1-4 from the aformentioned pattern and a few rows of stocking stitch. This was the result.
Nevermind my pajamas...like I said..rainy day.
I hate counting rows, so I have no idea how many rows of stocking stitch I did. But when I had enough, ending on a purl row, I repeated steps 1-4 fromt he Morning Glory pattern twice before continuing more stocking stitch.
The result:
I measured both stocking stitch sections to ensure they were about the same length before repeating steps 1-4 once more (from the pattern) then casting on 4 rows of garter stitch (trying to match the other end) and binding off.
Its 10x10 and ended up really well if I do say so myself. Especially since I improvised this project myself.
Oh forgot to add that the first and last stitches in every row are knit and US 7 needles were used! Important!
Anyways..here's the finished project.
Anyways, since I'd rather talk about my knits and not my worries, I suppose that's all I have to say for now. Time to think up some more projects!
