Yarn Along: Jenny and the Cat Club...


http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/seashore-cowl-2


Though we've read it a million times before, we have begun Jenny and the Cat Club again.  We're trying a new New York Review Children's Book every week during the summer, and last week's pick was Jenny's Birthday Book.  It was such a nice little story and it reminded us how much we love that shy little black cat!

I finished up my Seashore Cowl on Monday and immediately cast onto a Baby Fern Washcloth.  I began learning how to knit by making washcloths and we still use the ones that I made two years ago.  They are starting to show their wear, so I bought a huge cone of Peaches and Creme and cast on.  I hope that I have the stamina to knit a huge pile of these...  they are so beautiful!

  4. I never knit pretty patterns for wash clothes, but this one is gorgeous! I might have to take a page from your book and start with the pretty patterns :-)

  10. Did you use the pattern as written or modify it?...I read that the pattern isn't balanced as written, and I am wondering if you were able to fix that?..If so, how?

    It looks lovely so far :-)
