Gift Knitting 2014

12/26
All of the gifts have finally been given out. 
Now I can show you all the goodies.

 

Six of these gift baskets, or buckets, were handed out over the last few days. Each one contained four linen stitch cloths with a trial size bottle of dish soap. These were actually very easy knitting and most of the cloths were knit while I caught up on all the t.v. action I had missed over the summer.
The pattern can be found here: Linen Stitch Cloths

Some of the gifts were given out yesterday at my MIL's Christmas party.
I will be adding links and patterns to the blog for everything after the holidays are over.

The gift bucket for my SIL who has been stalking me on FB to see if I was making her some cloths this year.  I really am proud of how these all came out. I even used one of these for the dirty Santa at the party yesterday. It was a big hit! ;0)
