I have a little more time on my hands today...no babysitting and the kiddies are in school, so I was able to complete day #5 of my dishcloth Knit~A~Long, getting real close now! I was also able to post the photos of my latest finished project...Sunbonnet Sue Potholder that you can find at Carol's site. I'm so happy, it turned out real nice. Now she just needs her buddy, Sam! I couldn't seem to find any blue kitchen cotton, so he'll have to wait! I think that this double knitting technique is wonderful because it's like you are knitting two things up at the same time! If anyone is interested in this technique, there is a great tutorial video of it at Knitting Help.com . It's kind of awkward at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's wonderful! There are a few sites out there with double~knit patterns, such as Country Doubles , Stitch Diva , and there's even a Double Knitting Group you can join if you'd like. Anyway, I should go do some housework now, here are the pictures of my finished Sunbonnet Sue Potholder!
