A Month of Sundays

One month into the New Year I’ve finally decided on a knitting resolution for this year -  knit up at least one themed washcloth a month knitting at Lori’s on Sunday from 2 PM to 4 PM.  So in a month of Sundays, one washcloth is certainly plausible.  I find this kind of knit very relaxing and I love to watch the pattern develop so quickly plus there are so many cute and fun FREE patterns available.  

Kristen Knits is a site I found through Ravelry that is extremely creative.  She offers free patterns and sells some wonderful assortments of cloth set patterns at very reasonable prices.   I will be knitting several of her designs including a mystery Halloween cloth.

Here is my Month of Sundays Schedule and the completed projects pictured which illustrates that anybody can do this!

February: A KrisKnits Valentine Surpise Cloth 



March St. Patrick’s Day (a KrisKnits shamrock pattern) Washcloth & Coaster


KrisKnits Small Shamrock Cloth/Coaster

September (An Autumn Equinox Moon & Star Illusion Cloth)
October (KrisKnits Mystery Cloth)

I welcome company and will keep you posted on each cloth -

Happy Knitting and Crocheting!

  1. I love Kristin Knits and have purchased a few of her patterns. The smaller the needle you use, the more distinct the design shows up. Great idea Ellen!
