This week's e-newsletter from Lion Brand Yarn had a group of crochet patterns I really like! The crochet patterns make some lovely washcloths using very interesting shapes. I have always loved geometrics, so this really appealed to me!

Since the holidays are upon us and visits (and hostess gifts) and inevitable, why not make a few and create a little basket with one or two kitchen gadgets and a few of these washcloths? Or, my personal favorite, wrap one around a bottle of wine with a lovely bow! Perfect!

Lion Brand rates all these as "easy" and should work up in no time! If you do decide to make a few, I would love to hear how you do!
