KnitPicks does it again...52 weeks of dishcloths

If you just want to make a small project or practice some new stitches, a dishcloth is perfect. You get the practice in and have a finished item to use or give as a gift.

KnitPicks has 52 weeks of dishcloth patterns for both crocheters and knitters.

Here is a sampling...

I have found a treasure!

I have found a treasure from 1847. It is a copy of Mrs. Gaugain's Open Knit D'Oyleys No. 1. The scans are completed and I have a PDF copy for sale on ETSY. It surprised me that the doilies are so intricate and lacy.

The directions include Mrs Gaugain's translation for her unusual knitting abbreviations as you can see in the example below. 

Happy knitting, Debby
