Notes

I should have written down the details when I started or as soon as I finished the cloth. I learned the importance of monitoring the number of picks per inch as you go along as I was weaving more loosely at the end than at the beginning. I was going to make two placemats, but decided to make a walking-buddy bag (to carry phone, keys & ID, out of one piece. I think I would have liked the bag better had I finished the cloth with an iron-on stabilizer. Learn as you go… I do like Knitpicks CotLin a lot, it’s very smooth and consistent and feels nicer in your hands than some of the cheap dishcloth-type cottons.
