Schoolhouse Washcloth
August 25, 2011
I have been thinking I need some new washclothes. This is a pattern I created back in 2007 and I still love it, especially at this time of year. I decide to make a PDF file for the pattern. I find this a wonderful way to store patterns. I just keep a file on my external harddrive of knitting patterns. Enjoy and if you are on Ravelry, say hi and look for this pattern!!
ps. if you are having trouble opening this, let me know.
