Knitting Hang-ups

hanging kitchen towels and dishcloths
June 2020


Marilyn brought several balls of Sugar and Cream cotton when she visited a couple of weeks ago. I decided to knit some kitchen towels and dishcloth sets. 

The darker sets were knit with Desert Rising - two dishcloths from one ball and two towels with one ball each. Scraps were used for the hanging tab. 

The lighter set was knit with Guacamole - two dishcloths from one ball and the towel from an additional ball. Again, scraps were used for the hanging tab. 

I sewed buttons on the three towels before packing them for mailing. The towel sets should be at their new homes next week. 

The towel pattern is available on Ravelry - Leftover Dishtowel by Stephanie Haberman

  3. I've never thought to make hanging towels. How are they for drying hands vs regular towels? Love your colors.

  5. You're getting things done. Guacamole looks pretty much like your towel but it needs just a little red in it like the tomatoes in real Gauc.
