Am loving the bunting ...no ginny... stuff to finish.... bad girl...

I also made a tawashi and was so impressed with myself it was silly:rotfl: but they are so neat, Im guessing everyone will get one off me for xmas with a tag saying what they are!

I am giving Tawashis and dishcloths and I've done a poem to go with them if you want it Ginny?

Have now mounted the pudding and presents bunting

I would love the poem cuddles. gosh how nice to meet such people, so generous of their time and patterns, I had begun to think I was one of the few now I know I am one of the many.The O/S community is my kind of place

No problem Ginny - I really do believe in Karma or 'paying it forward'
Someone has (hopefully) offered me a pattern I need, so I'm glad to help you.

I am pairing the Tawashis with knitted dishcloths, so wrote this to explain. Just silly but it does the job!

Tawashi Poem

I made you a Tawashi, though you may not know the name.
You use it like a scourer, but it isn’t quite the same.
Cos it won’t hurt your fingers, or scratch your precious china,
So hang it with this dishcloth and your kitchen will look finer!

Hi Cuddles

I've found out the Advent tree pattern, if you PM me your addy I'll scan it and email it to you.

Is is just the tree you want or would you like the toys as well?

ETA - If anyone else would also like feel free to PM me.

Thank you so much Jenny - it's actually the toys I'm after.
Will PM you .

Cuddles what a lovely poem! Can I ask how well the tawashi work? they do look so much prettier than the scourers I knit. Mine are made to match my dishclothes, I use one strand of dishcloth cotton combined with one "strand" of net (a piece of net fabric cut into a continuous strip). I've been thinking of making some for christmas pressies, to go with some tea towels I'm making (navy blue waffle fabric with snowflakes stitched on each end).
