I recently finished this face cloth for my mum for xmas. It is from Weekend Knitting. Since my mum is spending the year in Mexico, I though something small and useful would be a good idea.
It's funny- I have been on crafty fast forward lately and it is probably because after we moved I felt unable to begin any project, I was so wiped. I have a wee sock monkey - my first- in the wings waiting for eyes and a scarf, blank tote bags on the way to print on.

My brother is here this week visting so that's been fun. This past sunday was a neighborhood pot luck! It was really cool to meet all the interesting people in my new hood. This is a totally new thing too, a neighborhood group just forming as we settle in. It is something I hoped for but didn't imagine would exist and here it is. yay!

you are soooo lucky to have a neighbourhood that is...neighbourly...like that! i'm so jealous! i'd love to have something like that around here but um, some of my neighbours scare me a little. i guess we should have bought that pink house afterall. hee hee

I have a half-finished cloth just like that in my large unfinished object bag! Yours is nice. Did you use cotton?

I so love this cloth.... I've been looking for cute stuff to put in little Spa Gift Sets I'm making for the girls at work and these are perfect....I guess I need to go get the pattern. But you did awesome!
