More Dishcloths!

Loved these dishcloths when I saw them and now I'm addicted to knitting them. The yellow one is for my mother who loves them too. She doesn't knit so has requested a couple more in different colors. I've bought enough Sugar and Cream to drive up Lily's stock! (No Peaches and Cream to be found around here.)



I bought hemp yarn to make handtowels today. The directions call for Euroflax linen, but I love the colors and will give these a try.

I got it at StitchDC, but they're out of most of the colors and have no plans to reorder. You can also get it at http://www.hempforknitting.com/yarnpageus.htm

It comes in two sizes; I bought #101 allhemp 3.

thanks for your kind words!

Cristina: I forgot to add that the hemp hanks I bought are 150 yds each and the MD washcloths require almost double that, so you may need to order two hanks.

I like the hemp - the colors look like jewels. Thanks for posting the yarn info.
