    Cotton is not at all as absorbable as linen and the even better and antibacterial is hemp yarn. You can buy it in a 6 strand count or thicker 8 strand count very cheaply from Cavvas.com in Romania. They also have hemp tissues. I buy it in 6 strands mostly and in rolls of 2 kilos, but they can make it how you like.

      @@HappeeKnits I hope you will try it. You will never go back to cotton ever after again. I think 1 kilo cost around 20€. You could easily buy 10 kilo, in 2 kilo rolls. I got most in 6 strands and one in 8 strands. I used it to tie big things together but it could be nice to knit a skirt in 8 strands. I use one a day, dry it on a heater and put it in the wash bin with bed linen, so I have many. I like to have a clean one that don't smell of bacteria. It is a joy to have and I make some also for the bathroom and very small ones for cleaning shoes.
      I use pins 4,5 mm, 25 cm long and I knit so many I give them to family. I attach the loose ends three times.

    Thanks for turning me onto this pattern. It is lovely and easy. I do wonder though, the pattern has three knit stitches at the beginning of row 5, but 2 at the end of row 5. This creates an assymetry in border. Why not add a stitch to make the total of 38 stitches and do 3 knit stitches at each end?

    thank you so much. i will definitely make this.☺

    • @HappeeKnits
      @HappeeKnits  6 лет назад

      I call it that because it looks fancier than just your regular washcloth. Technically it is a standard washcloth, but with a little bit more of a high end look.

I also like that you make videos understandable for beginners and enjoyable experienced knitters. I’ve watched all your videos and come back often for reference. Thanks so much!! Recently made your dishcloth. Video quality is excellent but the way and sound is good. Waiting to see more projects, stitches and hints.

    Hi - can you make a tutorial on how to knit a loganberry dish cloth. I have seen other tutorials, everyone has their style of knitting that can sometimes be confusing. What I like about your tutorials is that you really take time to show each loop instead of rushing through it.

    • @HappeeKnits
      @HappeeKnits  7 лет назад

      Thanks for your comments. I really try to show every stitch in my
      tutorials because knitting shouldnt be confusing. It should be fun. As
      far as the loganberry dish cloth, I found one pattern for the loganberry
      dishcloth on ravelry and knit picks website. Is that the one you are
      referring to?

    • @HappeeKnits
      @HappeeKnits  3 года назад

      You need to increase in multiples of 5. On the yo over row, you will still need the first three stitches and the last two stitches.

    • @HappeeKnits
      @HappeeKnits  6 лет назад +2

      Jenny Serna Hi Jenny. If I remember the pattern correctly, you should cast on in multiples of 7. So you could cast on 21 or 28 sets for a smaller washcloth. I hope this helps.

      +Karen Sheets Hi Karen. Yes you can make prayer shawls with left over yarn. Depending on what type of yarn you have, it could make a pretty striping effect. Also be sure to use the same weight of yarn throughout the project.

  • @ottomedic51texas75
    @ottomedic51texas75 7 лет назад

    It's my understanding that when you use a long-tail cast, it counts as row 1.. just double checking...

    • @HappeeKnits
      @HappeeKnits  7 лет назад +3

      +Sandy Otto Bryant Hi Sandy. That is not my understanding. I have always used the long tail cast on for all of my projects and it should not count as row 1. It would be the same for any cast on. The cast on row is just that. It only represents the cast on row. The long tail cast on makes a nicer edge, but you should not count it as row 1. I hope that helps. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

    Thank you for the wonderful video. Am I missing something? You said 37 stitches, but the pattern states 35 stitches.
    I need to make this larger, because everyone in my family has large hands. I was thinking about adding 12 extra stitches and slip the first and last stitches as if to knit. What us your suggestions for creating a larger spa washcloth?

    • @HappeeKnits
      @HappeeKnits  5 лет назад

      Thanks Elaine. I added a disclaimer to the video, stating I made a mistake when saying the stitch count. I think you have to increase in multiple of 5 for the math to work. So I think adding a slip stitch at the beginning and end and then doing 2 pattern repeats would fine. Is this what you were thinking of?
