After a long period with no knitting I have moved into a new house with several other knitters. We are trying to make much of the stuff that we need in our household. My latest project is this knitted hand towel, made out of white cotton, that you can see below in the picture. We are gonna use the hand towels in the bathrooms in our house.
It might have been easier to just go to Ikea and buy some cheap towel made in the far east, but it is much satisfying to produce your own stuff. The towel is about half done and I will show you the final product as soon as it is done.

I have tried to make some kind of “pearl” pattern in this towel and I think it looks pretty good. It is fun to experience with new ways of knitting :)

    YAY! I’m glad to see you are knitting again. And while it may be easier to go to Ikea, as you said its much more satisfying to make your own, but I feel home-made items like this work much better than store-bought.

    Your towel looks lovely and it’s so wonderful to see you back knitting again. Keep on turning out those frugal ideas as I love to read about projects like this. Best wishes on your new home too!
