Snow little knitting time

I've just come back from a week at the snow, which was awesome!
Unfortunately for my many, many WIPs and this little event called the Ravellenic Games, not a lot of actual knitting went on while we were making our way through blizzards and fresh powder snow.
Aaaah, the hardships.

But I did get some knitting in on the bus. in fact, I made two washcloths that I love very much. They're knit out of vintage stash, and so far, they're holding up great.

I didn't knit further on either the mitts or the mystery KAL shawl, because my brain wasn't up for it.
I did make quite a bit of progress on the Skew socks though.

Now that I'm back, it's time to seriously get into the dye pots for Sock The Vote. Are you ready to knit along, too?

A dishcloth?

Some knitters love washcloths. Some knitters are indifferent to them. Many people are confused by their merit (or not).
I had a long car ride from the mountain in the dark ahead of me, and I didn't want to knit another shawl.
So I cast on a washcloth. Or a dishcloth. Or a garter square on an angle.
Made out of cotton/acrylic vintage stash, it was quick, it was fun, and guess what?
The finished cloth is totally awesome!
Now I want a whole pile of handmade washcloths. Just saying...
