Knitting

I know I could wait until Friday to share a Finished Object Friday.. but, I wanted to share on Wednesday.. so you could say FOW if you wanted to... but at any rate; I finished the petal dishcloth that Charity suggested we try. I am so happy with it. The only problem I faced is the tips wanting to point up. I think I could fix this by not binding off so tight. Hope you enjoy.
I used a high quality cotton yarn I've been saving for the perfect project (probably 2 years or so), and I used size 6 dpn instead of a size 8. I like the size with the smaller needles, but I will try one with the larger needles one of these days.

I love it and am so jealous that I don't know how to this. This is the one thing I just can't seem to master. Do you make dollies and will you sell them?

Your dishcloth turned out beautiful! That looks like wonderful cotton... what brand is it?

You are welcome to go ahead and link to a project from the past week for FOF. I don't mind. :)

Well, unfortunately, I took off the wrapper about the time I bought it, 2 years ago. I did see at Hobby Lobby though that they had similar cotton yarn... but it was like $4 something a skien.
