Giveaway: Knitted Washcloth Set

Awesome Surprise for Awesome People
Please see the main post for more details!

Prize pack includes:
4 cotton dishcloths

I'm excited about this one.  I wanted to do a knitted project, but how do you choose something that could work for anyone?  Make a practical knit, that's what!

I've been involved in a few dishcloth swaps this summer, and it's been a lot of fun.  Not only do you receive a nice cloth from someone and get to know them a bit, you know that your gift has put a smile on someone's face.  And both of you maybe hate doing dishes a little bit less.

So I decided to do a nice set of washcloths for this giveaway out of a new (to me) dishcloth pattern.  I love the traditional Grandmother's cloth, but the lace added something to it, and hopefully dries quicker too.  I need to make some of these suckers for my own kitchen!

Of course, these can be used as bath cloths too!  I just hope that you enjoy using them, however way you do.  Do you ever make practical things for the house? 

If you'd like a chance to win this set of cotton cloths, please sign up below.  And don't forget to let me know how I can reach you if you win.  Link to an email in a profile, Ravelry account, or note it below.  GOOD LUCK!

  3. Hey Heather justwanted to say what a good idea for a giveaway and that these look very cute with the lace. I definitely sew practical things like ovencloths (perhaps they're potholders in north american, I'm not sure) and plastic bag holders. But i haven't ventured there with knitting yet. (I'm not going to you to post these actoss the world though, so you better leave me out of this giveaway this time).

  5. These are the epitome of cool. I want them badly. And I would save them for taking off my makeup, which can be pretty full on. But cotton is the best thing for it. Or, I might jus frame them and hang them on the wall, cos they are ART, I tell you, ART.

  6. These are really cute! I'd definitely use them as face cloths, it seems just a bit weird to me to use something so nice to wash dishes. I haven't ventured into houseware knitting yet, but maybe I should!
