Scrap at Work

All knitters have leftover yarns. And we all promise to use them up, aren't we? Well, today I combined this type of yarn to try a pattern I mapped the other day. Being more than happy with the result, I will share my recipe for a dishcloth:

Recommendations:
(a) Change color after row 2 or row 6.
(b) Stop your work after row 3 or row 7, then bind off

Make sure to scroll down to "written instructions" and expand instructions section for details.

I would be more than happy to see your projects at Ravelry.

Jede Stricker:in hat doch Restgarne. Und wir alle wollen sie aufbrauchen, nicht wahr? Na, dann los. Hier ist ein Rezept für einen kleinen Spüli mit einem super einfachen Lochmuster:

  1. turkish cast on: 37 Maschen
  2. 2 Maschen iCord bind off
  3. beginne die Stitch Map mit 39 Maschen (2-Maschen-iCord, 35 Mustermaschen, 2-Maschen-iCord)
  4. stricke solange bis dir die Länge gefällt
  5. iCord bind off

Empfehlungen:
(a) Wechsele die Farbe nach einer Reihe 2 oder 6 (b) Beende den Lappen nach einer Reihe 3 oder 7, kette dann ab
