June’s Year of Gifts is here! This month’s design is the perfect knit for hot summer days, and is perfect for gift giving. We hope this is a pattern you’ll knit again and again!
The washcloths are finished with an i-cord edging in the contrasting color. I’m not going to lie - knitting that the i-cord is a pain in the you-know-what, but it is sooooo worth the extra effort! And it really does go by pretty quickly. Maybe there is something about having four kids at home while trying to knit attached i-cord in a cotton and linen blend on size 3 needles that was folly… but hey, they look great and I’m super happy with them! I hope you enjoy knitting them as well, and I for one plan on coming back to knit these again and again. Stay tuned for a tutorial on how the i-cord is worked. I put together a video on how to do it, and I have a few tips to make it go smoothly, and I’ll be sharing that on the blog and IGTV soon.
