I call this my CHRISTMAS COLLECTIONS.
I have some more to come in this series.

Kathy

Rocking Horse Dish cloth
Dec Monthly Dish Cloth KAL
knitted with the Monthly Dish Cloth KAL yahoogroup.

Peaches ' n Creme
Color: ecru
Outline: Emerald

I tried something new with this one. I outlined the pattern with some cotton yarn and used bright red yarn
( looks lavendar, doesn't it)
for the neck tie and green cotton knot for the eye.
I think it turned out kind of cute.
Pattern can be found in the files of this yahoogroup.

I choose to call this my Christmas Star Dish Cloth
I found the pattern on the internet

Knitted Star Cloth designed by Rhonda White
http://www.knittingknonsense.com/starcloth.html

Didn't have enough of one color so I used yellow and gold. I knitted two rows of each color until I ran out of the yellow and finished up with the gold on the top.
I really like how this turned out.
Peaches 'n Creme
Color: Lost bands so I am not sure of the colors I used.

I have enjoyed looking at the cloths that you are knitting! I love to make cloths too, and I have to agree with you that the patterns in garter stitch do show up much better! Come visit my blog and take a look at some of the cloths that I've made! I am giving a lot for Christmas gifts so I've definitely been busy! :-)
