It took most of the day, but here is what we got. I think it turned out pretty well! This first picture is the charted picture. This was the hard part! (It would help if I could find knitting graph paper with larger squares! My old eyes were getting tired very quickly!)
Then there was a test knit with no borders or anything. Not sure if you can see the pattern very well. I used some leftover white cotton.
After a couple of adjustments, here is the finished Butterfly Washcloth! :) It is a nice soft green and ready to be put in Ali's gift bag. O.k.... I'll weave in the ends if you insist! ;)
Now, I am NOT artistically talented. I think I can do basic drawings, though, as long as they don't have to be complicated. (Stop laughing, Kira!) However, I think this butterfly turned out very nice! I'm pretty proud of it and will definitely keep the test piece. This one is going to Ali, though, as I have too many to turn out to hold one back. ;)
I'm thinking tulip and basic flower next. What do you think?
You created the pattern yourself??? That impresses me. :)
