Waffle Stitch Dishcloth

This dishcloth uses the featured stitch, the Waffle Stitch. It is a little over sized so that after it is washed and dried, it will shrink to the average size. The texture of this dishcloth lends itself well for scrubbing dishes clean. This same pattern could be made with nylon plastic canvas yarn for even more scrubbing power.

Random Quick Tip!

Coffee Filter Angels
You can make a very cute angel ornament for any occasion such as weddings, Easter, Christmas etc... by using 3 coffee filters. Actually if you use a cotton ball torn in half for the head then you only need to use 2 coffee filters. 1. Scrunch up one coffee filter to make a small ball.2. Place the ball inside the center of the 2nd coffee filter and form a neck just under the ball by pinching the coffee filter around it. Then wrap a piece of plain transparent tape around the neck. Flair out the skirt. 3. Fold the 3rd coffee filter in half then accordion fold it in the center to form the wings. Then glue the wings to the back.
