Bavarian Crochet Dishcloth

This runner design caught my eye in a catalog.  Someplace I saw a reference to learning Bavarian crochet, and I realized I did not know what that was, and so I looked it up online.I found a good video, and then what looked like a quite similar set of Bavarian crochet  instructions  in three colors, illustrated by with color photographs.  First, I learned the basic idea from this Bavarian crochet video.

Done in 85% , size 4 cotton, this dishcloth weighs 1.3 ounces, and is 7 1/2 inches across.  I am still mastering this technique.

Kitchen Wear And Tear

DSC07486 These kitchen brushes have seen better days, and have been replaced.  Their new counterparts have slightly different properties from these, so these have remained in service.  The bottle brush has to go, though, because it made a rusty scratch on something I was cleaning.DSC07487 These nylon crocheted scrubbies,  the left one old, and the right, red one new, last for a long time, and are truly versatile.DSC07488  This crocheted dishcloth adds a bright spot, and will probably last about a year, as worked into my kitchen wash routine.

Maintenance is required  by way of replacement of these common kitchen tools.
