In all, I'll need 35 for gifts, 42 if I want to keep some for myself.
Knit dishcloths are fantastic. They make fantastic scrubbers due to the stitches, but are gentle on dishes and cookware.
I haven't tried getting 2 cloths out of one ball of cotton yet, as they seem to use just over half. But, maybe mine will be made with colourful leftovers.
Head on over to Tami's Amis and Other Creations for other WIP Wednesday fun!

Oooh, I can just picture the incredibly colourful ones you can make with the leftovers! I really feel like I should give dishcloths a go, I've never made one!
Your dishcloths are lovely. They are so useful. I bet everyone who receives them will love them.
Wow, that's ambitious. But I agree on the leftovers...you could do the border in a different color...the diagonal ones you've got there could look great with different colored scraps.
What an awesome gift idea! I've knitted exactly one dishcloth, but clearly I need to get on board with more. Thanks for the inspiration!
That is such a great idea! I might have to look into this for my Xmas gifts, thanks for sharing!!
The ones made up of the scraps might turn out to steal the show. As it is, they look lovely.
They are lovely. You are so going to do all 42.
These look great! Great idea for Christmas gifts!
Great gift idea! I use a new dishcloth everyday, and then wash them at the end of the week! Much more sanitary that way :)
I think it's a great idea to use the leftovers for yours. Then they will remind you of the labor of love you did for Christmas giving.
Wow! Thats a lot of dishclothes, and they are all very pretty. :)
That sounds like a lovely gift.
The dishcloths are a great idea for a gift, and they're turning out lovely! I can't wait to see them all when you're done.
I think the leftover set for you might be the most fun in the bunch!
