What I’m Knitting Today

…while waiting for my next flight to Orlando…

The corrugated washcloth. I love knitting washcloths–and I’ve discovered that these all cotton washcloths don’t get that musty smell my “store bought” washcloths do.

Simple pattern:
CO 40
Row 1: purl
Row 2: knit
Row 3: knit
Repeat until you reach your desired length.

I’m using size 7 needles with Lily Sugar n’ Cream.

Happy travels!

Corrugated Washcloth

Corrugated Washcloth

I love knitting washcloths. It gives me the chance to try new stitches. I actually made this one for myself, which is unusual. It is a simple corrugated pattern, so it knit up quickly and somewhat mindlessly–I like to have at least one mindless project going at all times. It is perfect for waiting rooms, karate classes, staff meetings, etc. It keeps my hands busy and I don’t even have to really look at what I’m doing.

Cast on 40 stitches on a size seven needle, purl 1 row, knit 2 rows, repeat.
