HELP! I CAN'T STOP MAKING DISHCLOTHS!

Yes, they are still flying off the knitting needles, and my mind is full of great ideas for the next one, and the next, and the next, etc. Pictured above are some of the newer ones. I have decided to quit posting the patterns on the blog, however-- sorry, folks! The patterns will be published, but probably as an e-book with Knitpicks, since I am using their yarn anyway. It's going to be "Ten Terrific Dishcloths", or possibly "Fifteen Fabulous Dishcloth Designs". I'll keep you posted.

Meanwhile, Knitting Camp is in full swing. This year I made a bad decision about what yarn to start the girls knitting with. Usually I buy them cheap acrylic yarn in neon colors, but this year I opted for a wool blend in much softer and prettier colors. Easier on the hands and the eyes too. Unfortunately the new yarn is not working out well because it splits too easily. Some girls have such hot sweaty hands that the yarn actually felts while they are knitting it- I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it happen!
