Next Project....Washcloths

Well we are winding down on our time for chemo caps. We will continue chemo caps through the end of February, so don't put away those circulars just yet.

Our next project will be Washcloths / Dishcloths and I am researching and collecting patterns as we speak.

I mailed a letter to the Sojourn Shelter (domestic violence shelter) today in hopes that they will want to be the recipients of our cloths!!! I know that washcloths were part of their "wish list" at Christmas.

I'm working on securing some yarn that is made for this sort of project but I don't have anything suitable yet. (Washcloth yarn should be specifically designed for wash/dish cloths so it can stand up to dirty dishes, dirty faces and the washing machine, and so the color won't fade. Sugar & Cream comes highest recommended. This yarn is relatively cheap, it's on sale right now at Michael's Craft store for $1 but the selection is slim so keep your eyes open.
