I'm still in a knitting slump - but did manage to knit some mindless dish cloths - mostly Grandmother's favorites, with a couple more challenging designs. And, no...I don't do this many dishes. In fact I rarely do dishes at all! But they are nice to have on hand for a little gift.And, yes, I am counting each one separately for my 52 in 52 because I'm way behind this year!
I finally found the perfect pattern for the Prism Rayon Ribbon that my niece Linda sent me. The pattern is the Panda Cotton Drop Stitch Scarf .I added some fringe to it to show off the beautiful ribbon more.
And last (and least) is my Voodoo Doll - my own design (can you tell?).

I crocheted this as my project for my Whoduknit Group inspired by our May book, Deadly Night by Heather Graham. As you might guess the book dabbles in the occult - voodoo dolls, reading of tea leaves and palms,
and of course ghosts. It was a fun read. I had fun making the voodoo doll, but haven't decided who to use it on yet.

I love the voodoo doll! too cute.
Dishcloths always help me when I'm in a slump.
Aunt Jane the scarf is beautiful!! Smiles!! Happy Memorial Day weekend!! Linda
I love your projects! The dishcloths are great! I feel a little bit pampered to use hand-knitted dishcloths, so I know whoever gets them will love them. And what a cute voodoo doll (if voodoo dolls can be cute?)! I like the scarf, too. How did you like doing the pattern? I have some yarn for a similar scarf, and several patterns, but have yet to make them. I've never done anything drop-stitched before.
Jane - I always love to see what you create. You have a great eye for color and pattern. Even those dishcloths made me smile. Go figure. Since it's ONLY June 10 and I just started another book, I'm hoping to READ the June book. I've missed you all. Life's crazy. I still shouldn't let it get in the way of what I love. {{{hugs}}}
What is way of learning of you about new designs?
