| I find more and more that when I get stressed I pick up something I'm working on, start crocheting and relax... now, I'm not the world's best crocheter, and I still have trouble reading the patterns sometimes, but I do love it just the same. |

| I'm obsessed with dishcloths. (in a good way) I used to knit them with cotton yarn, and then I got a crocheted one. I'd like to find more patterns. and hats. My next house will have no kitchen - just vending machines and a large trash can. Bread Basket Gardening in Tennessee |

| ok. this was posted on another site...I recieved mine as a gift in an Apron Swap. Crochet Dishcloth Materials I used a J hook, the smaller the hook, the smaller the cloth. 100% cotton thread/yarn Chain 26 loosely. SC in second chain from hook, sc across row, ch 1, turn Repeat this row twice (25 sc ea row) Next 16 rows - 3 sc, sc in back loop only of sc’s to within the last 3 sc, 3 sc, ch 1, turn Repeat rows 1-3 (plain sc). End off I don’t think you need to sc around the outside as you want this to be a bit loose and it doesn’t need to be “finished”. These are so easy to make and are great for waiting in Dr offices etc. They fit in your purse easily. I got the variegated 100% cotton at Walmart. It is NOT in the yarn area – it is with the crochet cotton. The cotton yarn is also available at JoAnne’s The name I used is “Sugar ‘n Crème” variegated ( mine is the sink now, wet, so I can't post a picture =)~ ) My next house will have no kitchen - just vending machines and a large trash can.

| nannie it really doesn't matter how many stitches you start with - just keep the first and last 3-5 sts in sc. You can make it as large as you want!!! |

| Micheals had the sugar and cream 4 for $5.0o so I got 4. :) |

| Hey Melissa, Barb ! I just finished all the squares for an afghan I found on line. Now I have to figure out how to put it together! I have been spending a lot of time in yarn shops lately....a lot of companies are now coming out with some really nice cotton yarns in addition to the Sugar n Cream....they are a lot thinner.... I always found the dish cloths from sugar n cream to be thicker than I cared for .... I plan on trying some of the new yarns when I get my current projects finished. I have started a Snugglie for Sage, my granddaughter, from a free pattern at JoAnn's. I got the point of dividing for the arms and I just have not been able to figure out the directions yet. The Free Pattern sites mentioned above are fantastic....I have downloaded sooo many patterns I want to make! It is never too late to be What you might have been. ~George Eliot |

| Oh I have downloaded so many of the patterns from those sites it isn't funny. I have a whole notebook full from some of the sites I go to. Lots cheaper than buying them. I have some of the Sugar and Crean thread and I was thinking seriously about crocheting some socks out of it. I love cotton socks. |
