Lovely easy to follow pattern which will become part of the throw that I’m making using Emily’s patterns.

I love all of Emily’s dishcloth patterns. They are easy to follow, and because each pattern is uniform in size and border, I think they are extremely versatile!

It was so much fun getting directions for this dishcloth daily. Something to look forward to. Directions were very easy to follow and it was fun to guess what the final picture of the dishcloth would be. I usually use a smaller needle, because I knitmore loosely! garden lady
