Zombodys eating cotton candy?



So I fell down the Desert Vista Dyeworks second annual sock KAL Rabbit hole this year. I am so glad that I did! This KAL is so much fun, and her yarn is amazing. For the month of March I used her Zombodys eating cotton candy colorway. I made a plain vanilla sock top down and used the hat top heel & round toe from the book Sock Architecture. I love the hat top heel, it fits so great and the rounded toe is also my favorite. I am not a kitchner kinda girl, I always drop stitches and mess it up, so an alternative afterthought heel and toe really make me happy! 

Hope your all having a wonderful week!

Clean Edge Dishcloth


Spring calls for lots of spring cleaning and cleaning out the old. We have been cleaning out cupboards and closets since January and it feels so good to be getting rid of lots of clutter.
This weekend as I was cleaning out the kitchen I realized we needed some new dishcloths. Since I have a very well stocked stash of yarn, don't we all? I decided to make some new dishcloths for the upcoming spring, and to brighten up the kitchen.
I used Mamachee's pattern CLEAN EDGE DISHCLOTH, and I am so glad I did! I see so many of these lovely dishcloths in my future, and my cotton stash will dwindle fast.

I used Sugar N Cream yarns for the 3 I have made so far, you can also find all the details of this project on my Revelry project page.
