Another new pattern to try out. I love it! Kitchen hand towel. It however, takes 2 balls of yarn, and the kit it came in, uses yarn made in China (75% cotton, 25% polyester). I couldn't make and sell them for a good price, so this one goes in my own kitchen, and some may make it in Christmas gift baskets. Just depends on if I can find 100% cotton at a good price. I don't like Herrschner's yarn (Heritage Cotton) they sent in the kit. Like I said, made in China, and so far every ball has had imperfections in them.
Our 17 year-old daughter wants one for her Hope Chest, but said she's "never moving out" ha ha ha! She's gotten the chance of many trips this year, and she's loving it, so it's on the "winter" to-do crochet list.
The heat is now rising upon us. I packed salty nuts and watermelon in Hubby's lunch. It's so bad outside.
I also boiled eggs for a cold egg salad sandwich. We ate cold apple/pecan salads again the night before. Just trying to keep us fed, but with colder options.
We got a rain storm in the afternoon yesterday, and it was random and much needed. If we don't get a random storm today, I'll need to water to cool down the expected 115° heat index on the garden today. Chickens will get ice 2-3 times if needed too. This is the worst heat we have ever had.
