The DIY 4th of July Banner with blue, white and red paper and burlap would make a wonderful decoration.

First up – What’s on my needles?

On My Needles

I am so happy with how my Plum Lotus Dishcloth by Kalurah Hudson for Knit Picks turned out!

As I mentioned in a previous post, as my yarn is orange I could change the name to Apricot Lotus Dishcloth.

I was reflecting on how good dishcloth patterns are to help gain knitting confidence.

The stitches I have learnt doing different patterns gives me hope that I can tackle more difficult patterns.
