 Rosie says:  "Happy Christmas in July!"

hi fellow knitters,
while I've taken a *vacation* from creating kal's this summer, I do have this one for you from one of our own members - Dixie ~
she started our year with that terrific double-knitting dishcloth, remember?!
This is one she designed, based on Christmas Lights!
So I thought it would be great for now, to have Christmas in July!!

This is a lovely cloth - the edging is so beautiful the way it works up -
Enjoy it and be sure to let Dixie know you liked it and tell us what colors you used too!

Happy Knitting!  ~ And a big Thank You, Dixie for sharing your talents with all of us! ~ Linda
