Very impressive Reviewed by Joan Apple on 2011-09-03
I used a variegated-type yarn and washcloth turned out so pretty! The chevron pattern is really fresh and modern. Working the pattern requires attention but the result is well worth it. Would make a lovely gift, possibly tucked into a gift basket with other goodies!
