Tea Towel progress

I picked this project back up for a little bit of mindless knitting. I’ve been trying to work out a stripe pattern that will use up as much of these two balls of yarn as possible. After making my placemats for xmas I should have known that this project was going to take me a while to make. A dishcloth sized object is just about right for cotton yarn. It’s hard to work with the cotton yarn for more than that at a time. Ten or twenty rows is about enough for me to feel like I’ve made progress without getting bored or getting hand strain. It also gives me a chance to slow down and weave in my ends as I go. Future me will be grateful for that when this project is done!
