How to make a Dorset Button - updated version - more close ups - 2 designs - crosswheel & pinwheel! This video is an updated version of my old video - taking on board some of the comments I've received over the years.

Bamboo Stitch Dish Cloth pattern by Stacy Wilkinson This wash cloth is featured as week 4 of the 6 week Learn to Knit series. With the pattern, there is also a row by row checklist and a link to the video tutorial where I walk you through each step of knitting this project. The final outcome is a lovely, textured and useful wash cloth.

For the sample, I used less than a skein of Lilly Sugar'n Cream yarn in the color ''Swimming Pool''. You can use any cotton yarn that you like, however the pattern is written for the Medium 4 weight yarn. The pattern is written for an 8.5'' x 8.5'' cloth, but is completely and easily customizable to adjust the width and length to any size that you like.

Looks great in solids, ombres and stripes!

Pattern by Margaret Radcliffe

Worked in rows, using two Tunisian hooks. The hooks do not need to be the same size, but your gauge will be determined by the larger hook, and the smaller hook should be large enough to work comfortably with your chosen yarn. Choose any weight yarn you like, and hooks of a size appropriate to your yarn weight. This method comes from a YouTube video made for the Australian Handknitters and Spinners Group on Facebook, and have adapted the method in this pattern. You can find the original video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_9EPn67mGg

Tutorial on how to crochet a towel topper; the pattern is by the videographer. Things I like about this design: it doesn't require a sewing machine because the base of the design is chain-stitches across the middle of the (tea) towel, you don't have to guess at the length of the chain-stitches, the gathering is done by decreases in the crochet, and the stitch-pattern in the main body of the towel-topper is quite pretty.

Pattern by Arcelia Rodriguez. The scrubber pattern was inspired by a Japanese Tawashi pattern. The scrubber pattern is easy but has an interesting construction that turns the knitted rectangular strips into its final circular shape. For a scrubber, the best yarns to use would be either cotton for absorbency, or nylon for abrasion.,

Donna Wolfe from Naztazia demonstrates how to both crochet and knit a twisted scrubbie based upon a chinese knot.

Pattern by Marcia McCormack. This uses polyester \scrubbie\ yarn, which is a shaggy yarn intended for making... scrubbies. This pattern uses seed stitch to make a square, and then you fold the square into quarters and stitch the sides together. This gives it the bulk needed to make a good scrubber.

Looks like a nice thick coaster; possibly useful larger as a potholder.
