Because of the road conditions we all went into the office at about 11am. I was sitting at my desk and Wendi called out from the next room: “Where are those patterns!?” I hurried to get them for her. We discussed the likelihood, possibility, and achievability of producing 365 dishcloths – one a day for the year 2011.
I promised Wendi I would write really good patterns and that I would get others to help us….
Follow me onto Dishcloth #9 and the rest of the story….

I liked the new approach to this one! I didn’t expect to start with a long chain and work from the outside in! Thanks for the new technique
