Blooming Success.

 I did it! Sometimes all it takes is clearing the mind and setting aside distractions. Yesterday afternoon I sat down with nothing but my knitting needles, the pattern, and my trusty row counter — not even my favourite David Attenborough on the TV.

And it worked. I made the flower wash cloth. Yay! I’m so very happy about that. After the sock fiasco, I really didn’t need another failure, so this success feels extra sweet


Now the needles are calling again — I’ll make a couple more, since I need another Secret Santa gift for craft club. LOL. Fingers crossed it won’t turn into another socks‑style saga where failure follows success.

Looks delightful! I'm keeping positive thoughts that after this success under your belt, you will have many more (and no repeats of the sock fiasco!

Great job on the dish cloth. I have never made a circular dishcloth…lots of square ones though.

This design does work out so nice. Great to give as a gift. It can also be used as a facecloth
