I mentioned last time that I was going to crochet some more dishcloths, and now I have. (Please, try to contain your excitement.)
They are imperfect, to be sure, but I think they'll work. I used a free pattern called Nubbie Scrubbies, which is a very easy pattern of alternated triple and single crochet that makes cute little bobbles. I did manage to accidentally make one of them a little smaller by not chaining enough stitches to begin with. Again, I'm pretty sure it will still work.
Working on these hurt my hands, especially my thumb. I don't know if that's because I'm new to crochet and using different muscles, or if it's because of the kitchen cotton. I know that sometimes knitting with this yarn also makes my hands hurt.
This was a fun project to take on the bus to give me something to do with my hands while listening to podcasts. These dishcloths and Serial will probably be forever intertwined in my head.

Someone crocheted me a lovely baby blanket before Giles was born, it's a great thing to be able to do.
That's part of the reason I want to learn - crochet is so much better for blankets than knitting!
