Thank you so much Elaine, I love your designs. They knit up so beautifully. And I do love Rudy. I have made the Baby Snowman too and will definitely be doing more. Any chance of a cute penguin?
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking the time to post all of these sweet washcloths. I am a beginner knitter. I was looking for some small washcloths for my son when I ran across these. By far the cutest, most creative I have seen so far! Your awesome!

ReplyDeleteHi to all have just got into knitting again. I am enjoying knitting dish cloths at the moment and am wondering if anyone has or knows were I can get a Owl dish cloth pattern free.
ReplyDeleteHi Elaine, I love your designs! I am a dedicated knitter and am always looking for beautiful patterns to make. I make all my knitted items for gifts for family and friends and they all love what I give them. You are awesome...keep posting! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Elaine!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your patterns. But instead of the dishcloth I checkerboard the patterns into afghans. The favorite of the moment is using the Tunie fish, turtle and seahorse in a sea green color for an under the sea afghan! ALL my friends love your designs. Keep posting!
