FO: The Ruggles Not Quite Authentic Turkish Bath Scrub Cloth



...c'est finit!

Yes, she is done and quite lovely. So much so that I had to take the ole washcloth for a spin before I even took the time to weave in the ends. The bobbles feel heavenly as they gently exfoliate your body. I did, however, notice that the washcloth stretches under the weight of the water and soap, so I'm thinking about frogging it and reknitting in a smaller gauge. I just don't like the way it splays out over the palm as you bathe.

Washcloth particulars:
I used Lily Sugar & Creme on US 08 needles and cast on 52 stitches for a final size of 10.5" x 10.5"

This time, I'm going to go swatch the pattern stitch using US05 and wet the swatch to see what it looks like before going forward.

  1. A finished object! Finally. I began to despair you would continue to start and start and start and never finish. Congratulations! Of course, I'm one to talk at the moment all I do is start and rip out...
