When the Two Most Popular Posts Meet II

Lavender and Pale Green

Lavender and Lavender
The basic pattern for the mitered dishcloth can be found in my Etsy shop here.

This "rose done in the round" pattern can be purchased here as
Step 2 of the Granny Rose pattern in my Etsy shop.
The picot edge is included in Step 5 of the Granny Rose pattern 
and can also be purchased in my Etsy shop here.
You can also purchase all five steps of the Granny Rose pattern as a package via Etsy here.
They are all instant downloads.

 Since I used the Tilda yarn from My Rose Valley, which is a lighter cotton-blend,
 the rows were increased to 43 from 25.
If you don't feel like making some, but want some anyway:
These dishcloths can be purchased in Etsy shop here. :-)

Follow the path with lavender:
(Random...I know...but it's lavender...)

These are also a great stash-buster for Linda and Ana's Stash-Buster challenge,
The challenge goes until the end of 2013.

  9. You can never have too much lavender in my opinion. My house is full of the scent after spending some time today gathering the dried heads and crunching them in my hands for sachets. A nice autumn job! xx

  11. Ilove your new pot-holders in Lavender and green!
    I just wanted to mention that I finally got the hang of your Granny Rose tutorial (the youtube link you gave with the pattern was a huge help!) and now I'm making those lovely roses in double quick time, almost automatically! I'm going to use them on an autumn wreath I'm planning on making this month! I love the rose! For anyone hesitating about buying your pattern, I can thoroughly recommend it! Greetings, Sandra
