New Leaves

I haven't exactly gotten past the dishcloth phase, but I did try something new this week. I found some neat patterns for dishrags with a scrubbie in the middle, so I made a trip to the dollar store to buy some scrubbies and got to work! Honestly, I was afraid that the directions (...sl st in next 3 dc, sc in next 2 dc, 2 dc in each of the next 5 dc's, dc in the next 2 dc, 2 dc in the next dc, hdc in the next dc, sc in the next 3 dc, sl st in the next 5 dc, sc in the next dc...) would be too difficult, but I'm actually pretty pleased with what came of it all. I feel as thought I've turned over a new leaf in pattern-reading. I also have pretty much mastered crocheting leaves...ha:)!
