Wash Cloths and Wash Days

I know some people think hand washing is a pain, but I actually quite enjoy washing my hand-knit socks.
It's nice to collect them up from wherever I've taken them off (I'm messy) and reunite them all as a collection.



Hanging them in rows on the new radiator in the new(ish) bathroom is also quite pleasing.

I finally finished the wash cloths I started back in October.



Details
Pattern: Textured Dishcloth aka The Ballband Dishcloth of Mason Dixon Fame.
Yarn: Stylecraft Kon-Tiki in shades #1451 Aqua-spring (1.4 balls) and #1450 White (1 ball).

Needles: US5 (3.75mm) aluminium straights.
Notes: I really like these, they match the tiles in the bathroom so well. The 50:50 cotton-acrylic mix works really well for washcloths. I managed to get 4 cloths out of the 3 balls I had before I ran out of white.
