Dishcloth orgy

I have seen more volleyball, beach and otherwise, in the past ten days than I have seen in my entire life. And I used to play volleyball. Enough already!

Not volleyball AGAIN?!?

While watching all the digging and spiking, I cranked out these four dishcloths:


Pattern: Three Easy Wash Cloths - box stitch
Yarn: Lion Brand Cotton
Needles: US7
Modifications: Attempted to balance the design by repeating rows 1-3 and binding off on the wrong side.


Pattern: Three Easy Wash Cloths - garter ridges
Yarn: Lion Brand Cotton
Needles: US7
Modifications: none that I can recall


Pattern: Three Dish Cloths - waffle pattern
Yarn: Lily Sugar 'n Cream
Needles: US6
Modifications: Did not cast off in pattern


Pattern: Three Dish Cloths - ridge and rib pattern
Yarn: Lily Sugar 'n Cream
Needles: US6
Modifications: Did not cast off in pattern

The aqua ones were snatched up by my SO. I decided to keep the green ones because 1) they are kind of small, 2) I need a couple more dish cloths, and 3) they are REALLY green.

Unable to resist, I have already cast on the first sweater of winter, for the dumpling at the top of this page. I might as well work on it while watching (more) volleyball. *sigh*

Is that the grandbebe? She's a beauty.

I only have NBC for Olympic coverage, so like you, I've had my fill of volleyball. The summer games are less interesting to me than the winter, but I do like the diving, which I've seen little of this year, and the boxing, which might as well be non-existent because it's gotten no coverage at all. Feh.

Ha! I don't blame you for sticking to cotton. This heat is just exhausting! I am soooooooooo ready for winter, and we just finally got our first tomatoes.
