One down...
A million to go! Well, maybe not a million, but a lot to go.
I knit my first ballband dishcloth yesterday. It's adorable and knit up so quickly!

This is gorgeous! I just can't get that bubble effect with the reversed stitch and I have made a couple of these - I'm going to keep trying!
That is really cute! Love the warshrags! They are addicting!
I just wish I could do them faster... maybe I need more practice???

I like that picture, it really shows off the texture of the stitches. Cool idea for a background on a desktop! ^.^

Diane, you might try using a smaller needle. Looser knitting doesn't allow the garter stitches to "pop" nicely.

I just made my first ball-band cloth over the weekend. My edges look terrible! Also, what's the method for carrying the alternate color along the side? I left it alone and didn't pull it up until used again - across several rows, and so it left a large loop.

I just pull the color not being used tightly (but not tight enough to scrunch the side) after I knit the first few stitches with the other color. It seems to be working well.

How cute is that dishcloth!!! I'm going to get out my white cotton now!!! Thanks for the inspiration!
This looks like a bunch of white fluffy clouds in a pink sky. That was my first thought anyway. Very awesome.

Every time you are on the side with the loose one waiting you do a single twist, then it is only carried up every two lines not four. I also do tidy edges, which I learned on the yahoogroup MonthlyDishcloths.
