Can't Get Enough!
Here's my first 3 dishcloths. I'm already earmarking them as gifts for certain people. These are the first of MANY, I'm sure. I bought a ton of yarn for them! Too bad I am still such a slow knitter...
I've also finished a burp cloth, and am just about done with the matching bib. I'll post them together as a set soon.
I am in love with this book and its projects! I think it has a lot to do with the fact that I am still a new knitter, and so many of these items are quick and easy. I did attempt the beautiful circular dishcloth a while back, and actually posted about my difficulty with the bobbles. I finally chose to set that particular project aside. Although I'm sure with all of the great advice you gave me, and a little practice, I'll be able to tackle those bobbles with ease very soon! Thanks again to everyone for being so kind, and so inspiring! I love looking at everyone's FOs!

It sounds to me like you are knitting right along at a fine speed. I'm new at knitting and have only been knitting since about March. You will get faster, I have. I did a circular discloth and had trouble with the first bobble but then got the hang of it; the trick, for me, was to relax the tension. But my count was off for the stitches much of the time becuase I kept loosing count, so mine turned out rather wonky, I'm going to do another sometime soon and use stitch markers to help keep track of those first 150 stitches!
I really love the rainbow dishcloth! I've seen a zillion variations of this dishcloth, but never in this color. Beautiful!
