| Job type | Test knit |
| Description | There are 5 different projects, but I only need knitters to do 3 of them. Every knitter should do a face cloth (flat). After that, choose a version of the soap sac and the bath mitt. You will need about 55 to 75g of cotton yarn. The yarn I use is listed as aran. I believe Peaches & Cream and Sugar 'n Cream are equivalents. My pattern style is not like most patterns. I write in full sentences, and provide written row-by-row instructions that match my Action charts, and your knitting. I am looking for feedback. |
