 Hi everyone -
hope you've enjoyed this KAL - this little owl is so cute!  get a photo taken and post to your yahoo album - AND we will have a Contest for this KAL, winner to be chosen by the designer, Jodi Baldwin! Details will be posted soon -
   I knit another little cloth up yesterday - made with a smaller needle, so it's a baby-size washcloth - Fun!

 

  IF you want, you can use Jodi's directions to give your owl a face and outline all around, see her pattern for those details.
  Happy Knitting!

  grab your cold drink, your knitting needles and yarn - and
 let's knit up this sweet little dish-cloth ~

 I love this pattern!  and hope you will too - it's a fast knit - so you may finish it tonight~
  it will be a great cloth for a little one, or make a large
 size for a spa cloth, or a larger size would be great as a
 kitchen hot-pad.
