Washcloth Knitting
Today I started my first knitted washcloth. I've crocheted them, but I ordered some variegated yarn that pools badly when crocheted, so I thought I'd try knitting one. I searched the free patterns for an interesting texture and found the perfect pattern - the "Infamous" Darrell Waltrip cloth by Rhonda K. White.

Is it absorbent enough to be used as a washcloth? I thought they were made of towelling...
Yes - it's pure cotton and much nicer than the thin towelling that you buy.
