new dishcloth
One of the groups I joined at Ravelry is hosting a dish cloth exchange in July. I had the option of signing up for one name or two names to send a new dish cloth and a ball of cotton yarn.
I chose two people and sent off two envelopes last week after the partners were announced.
By choosing two, my name was then matched up with two people - and look what I received in the mail yesterday from one of them - aren’t those colors gorgeous? And the cloth was done from one of the patterns of the week that the group posts. The ball of yarn Anna sent me is in baby colors which is cool, because it is perfect for a project making the baby feet cloths for a group known as Birth to Five. I have the pattern already because I made it for Ms. S last year. (she wears a baby feet lapel pin so I thought it was a natural for her)
I didn’t try that pattern, although I have completed several of the others. They are generally quick to work up and make nice cloths. The group seems really nice - I haven’t noticed any backbiting or the like. I guess if people are nice enough to make dish cloths for other folks, they must just be nice all around, huh? (please understand that MOST of the people I’ve run across over at ravelry seem to be VERY nice people . . . but there is always that one, you know?)
So - have you checked out Lessa’s Big Brother contest???? Why not???? Get on over there and join in the fun. Leave a comment and have a good chance at winning one of the prizes. I wrote about it in a previous entry. Lessa wrote about it here.
I knitted a couple of prizes for her to give away - and you need to comment on HER site to have a chance at winning one of those. Buuuuuuuuuuttttttttt . . . if you comment on that entry of mine, I just might throw something into the pot for one of the knitting passion readers, too.
How’s THAT? Go on, you know you wanna!
