Entre-WHAT?

Yarn: Sugar 'n Cream cotton yarn, (seashore)
Needles: one size 7 and one size 8 DPN (by mistake!)
Pattern: http://knotanotherhat.typepad.com/GarterlacDishcloth2.pdf (PDF file)
Comments: First try at Entrelac knitting. I've never much liked the look of entrelac until I saw it done in garter stitch... Garterlac? Will definitely do again.

Giant petal dishcloths...


Yarn: Sugar 'n Cream cotton yarn, various leftovers. (delft blue & pretty pastels, white & seashore)

Needles: DPNs 8 (for left), 7 (for right)
Pattern: http://www.jimsyldesign.com/~dishbout/kpatterns/petal.html
Comments: This thing needs to be seriously downsized. It's huge. So I made it again with size 7's, but could still use some pattern manipulation to make it a tad smaller.

Addison's Pink Poncho


Yarn: Lion Brand 'Pound of Love' (approx. 5 oz)
Needles: size 10 circs, 16" & 29"
Pattern: http://webpages.charter.net/lgreen/JoannasPonchoPattern.htm
Comments: Addison is turning 1 year old and NEEDS a pink poncho. Adjustments made to the pattern: I doubled the yarn to 2 strands and I added the tie.
