Washcloth of the Month: April
Spring Forward
As a reminder each month in 2022 I will be releasing a different washcloth pattern featuring fun design elements to try, as well as colors that represent the mood of the month.
These projects check so many boxes:
Small & portable
Super interesting! The pattern & colors will change each month
Easy way to learn or improve a skill on a small scale like lace or cables
Great palette cleanser between larger more complicated patterns or projects
Practical & versatile; at the end of the year, you will have 12 or more washcloths that can be used from the bathroom to the kitchen and everywhere in between.
They make great gifts!
April Washcloth: Spring Forward
April is the month of spring cleaning as we start to dust off the cobwebs of a sleepy winter & start to look forward to the promises of a sunny summer ahead. We set our clocks forward for longer days and shorter nights. Spring is the promise of new life, as buds start to appear & the grass starts to turn green.
