The journey of a widowed Southern lady stranded in the Mid-west surviving the perils and pearls of grief, adult children, grandchildren, writing, retirement, and assorted crises.
Good for you for getting back into your crochet, thats one craft I never did get to grips with. I can sew, embroider and knit, but crochet remains beyond me :-)
So lovely to see and hear you again. Don't know how I missed it. I like that wool and love the dishcloths. I think they would make a fabulous summer handbag. By the way, I love how you say "aqua".
By dishcloth do you mean a cloth to wash dishes with or to dry dishes? Just clarifying that a dishcloth is the same in Merikan as English!
It is interesting that you use coasters. I have some but rarely use them. Occasionally in the living room where the mantle is very expensive wood. I have never considered the absorbency of them before. Guess we don't drink much with ice in. I understand now. Will have to fill the freezer with ice when you come here!
I like it too! Coaster cosies! You should sell them. Love the yellow and white colour way.
You know, when you finally make it over here, I am going to get you to teach me to crochet.
Dishcloths to wash. Dish towel to dry. I made cloths but I've got a few that are between the two in size and I've used them interchangeably. I really love these cloths/towels. They are so very asorbant.

DeleteDish towels of course. Over here they are called tea towels, I have no idea why. Isn't that odd?
DeleteWell, yes, it is odd but since tea is the cornerstone of the British Empire, I'm not surprised. What would tea be without tea towels?
