I got the Knit Knack Kit for X-mas a several years ago. Not long after, I made a dishcloth for my mom in some Cotton Ease yarn that I had. She liked it, but it wasn’t as big as the store-bought dishcloths she had. And it was hard to wring water out of it.

So, I modified the pattern to make a bigger one. While making it, I dropped a few stitches and mess up, so there’s a big boo-boo on the back. My mom told me that she liked the big dishcloth, but it was too big.

Okay…

So I made another small one, but in 100% cotton and in a color that she picked out. I like the cotton yarn because it’s fuzzy and has a nice softness to it, but it sheds all over you when you knit with it, every skein has at least 1 knot in it where they joined two strands together, it loses it’s softness in the wash, and it loses it’s color in the wash. I added an “after” picture so you could see what I’m talking about.
