This washcloth was a cable attempt by Gloria. While this one did not turn out perfectly, like her last one, she learned a lot! I show this washcloth because it is as important to learn as it is to knit perfectly. And she accidently did a really difficult cable twist, so next time she will be able to do it on purpose,

This washcloth was made by Gloria. She is working up to making an aran sweater for her daughter. The cable is a little difficult to see with the pattern in the yarn, but really is beautiful!!

Knitting class has been going well. The skill of everyone in the class is increasing each week. We are up to 42 washcloths donated by the women!!

This washcloth was made and donated by Gloria.





These three projects were made by Pongsi. I put them in order of the time they were knit, since I think they show a lot of improvement. The colors are beautiful and bright and such great progress!

End of the year knits

We had a small class this week, but look at the beautiful washcloths the women made to donate back to The Gathering Place!!


The beautiful washcloth was knit by Gloria, who then crocheted the border in the contrasting blue.


This pretty blue washcloth was made by Darlene. Such nice even stitches.


These two beautiful washcloths were made by Melinda. The larger blue one was crocheted.


Finally this set of washcloths were made by Kathy. She used two different strands of yarn on these to achieve these beautiful, colorful results.

Happy Knitting!
