Joining in on Ginny's yarn along.
Well I finally made not one but 2 dishclothes and I'm on my way knitting a third one. I don't what to call these things. I just wanted something to wipe down the table and counters and it gave me a chance to try the Tunisian crochet. I apologize the picture isn't so great. I did enjoy making these even though they came out a little crooked I really like that they feel more like a waffle texture. I hope that one day I can do another tutorial on the Tunisian stitch.
What's new for reading material is The Red Garden that just came out yesterday. So excited Alice Hoffman is one of my favorite authors. Her books are also translated in Italian. Hope someday to get some Italian copies to add to my library. For now I'll enjoy her latest.
I'd love to hear what you're making.

Ooh, I'm jealous you've got Alice Hoffman's latest already! I've been wanting to try Tunisian crochet since my friend Eric started last week--it looks so similar to knitting!
Dana55- I'll be over in a minute:)
Lise-I hope I can do a Tunisian crochet tutorial soon. I like too because it's still crochet but gives it a different texture:)
I didn't know Alice Hoffman had a new book! Super excited now - thanks!!!
Love the yarn. Never heard of tunisian crochet, but it looks lovely.
I love love LOVE Alice Hoffman! Didn't know she had a new one out. I must have it!
