zoo Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 These dishcloths/washcloths are perfect for big messes like scrubbing your dishes but still soft enough to clean little messes on faces Someone requested some of these and Im just in love with them (the cloths not the person, well both actually ). These are made from 100% cotton yarn so they are soft and absorbant and will last for quite some time. $2 each these two styles are very similar and both have tighter stitches that form ridges edited to add....other colors are available Link to post Share on other sites

I'll take 3 of them...Red please I don't care what style unless they come in "washes your dishes for you" lol as soon as I can find a pattern for the 'wash your dishes for you' I will let you know! Would you like me to make one of each style for you or all the same? as far as the crocheting Ive promised a few lessons to someone via pm we are going to set something up, as soon as we do you are more then welcome to come on over and I can teach you too Hey Girl , I miss you. I love those wash cloths, you did a great job as usual. . those would make great shower gifts You are right about the shower gifts. I am actually working on one for nick right now...not as a shower gift but he is such a drooler and the napkins/papertowels are not soft and the washcloths arent perfect either so Im making one in white with blue border for him I would like 4 of tighter woven ones and you know I would like them in camo if possible. I have to run to michaels tomorrow and I will check on camo. Sometimes the cotton yarn is a little more limited to primary colors but I will check for ya If they dont have it would you like a different color? These are very pretty. Good job. thank you Link to post Share on other sites

One of each style is fine or if you have 3 in the same style that is fine too...I'm not picky I'll get started looking for that pattern Link to post Share on other sites

zoo Posted April 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Good job Zoo! I still love my hat you made, but it's too warm to wear it now. dang I was thinking it was freezing out and I was gonna pull that hats out for tonight You are awesome!! One of each style is fine or if you have 3 in the same style that is fine too...I'm not picky I'll get started looking for that pattern lol, I will keep looking on my end too I will let you know as soon as yours are done OMG THEY ARE PERFECT!!!! Girl you knew exactly what I wanted!!! Thank you so much!!! I'll take 5 each of the multicolor style and the tighter woven red one. In all different colors. I love the multi!! Thanks so much!!! The multi color one is the same pattern as the red one just a little bit larger stitch. Those two (multi and top red) are probably the better style for dishes/bigger cleaning jobs since they have the ridges. I think the multi pattern is my favorite bc it has the ridges to scrub but its a little bit smoother for cleaning the babies face although most days he probably needs the tighter one Pink or Orange would work fine ok but I will still shoot for camo...fingers crossed! The cotton yarn is new to me so Im not sure what kind of selection of colors they have yet. I did pick up a couple multi, white, blue, yellow, red...but that was at walmart. Im assuming michaels will have more of a selection. I will let you know Link to post Share on other sites

zoo Posted April 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 those are very cute! how long does it take to make one? Very cute its hard to say bc I sit down start then my oldest daughter needs me to go do something, then I sit back down to start again and my middle child and middle son start to argue so I get up to break them up then I sit back down to start and the baby wants to sit in my lap and throw the yarn away........on that time frame about 5 days If I wait until the kids are in bed then maybe 20-30 minutes at the most...dont really get that opportunity much so it really is hard to say for her like 10 seconds she could make a whole blanket in 5 min. lol, you are giving me too much credit Link to post Share on other sites

zoo Posted April 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Let me know when I would love to learn how. ok I have never taught crocheting but I dont think it will be too bad. Those are just oo cute. Every time I've ever tried crocheting I always end up with odd, slanted shapes. I did too at first. I started a little ambitious and decided to make a blanket. As im just crocheting away day after day thinking im doing a great job my dad started laughing at me and I didnt understand why until i laid my blanket down and realized i made a rainbow shape blanket Once you get it really its not so hard.

CreativeOne Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 I have several that my grandmother made years ago which are holding up great - but these crocheted wash cloths are the :bomb:! Old fashioned yes, but better than all of the modern gadgets for cleaning! Hope you sell a ton of them 'cuz they are so great and once hooked (no pun intended) you will not go to the expensive store bought ever again! Link to post Share on other sites

Hope you sell a ton of them 'cuz they are so great and once hooked (no pun intended) you will not go to the expensive store bought ever again! I know you are right! I have never used one until I got the request to make some. I always like to test things out before I sell them and omg Im in love. I would never use anything but these again. I gave my bf/neighbor one after I tried it and she loves them to. I was a little skeptical at first but Im a believer now Link to post Share on other sites
