It's been a mad rush to the finish line, but I did finish Anne's dishcloth pattern before Sunday at midnight, although I was frantic the closer the clock got to the hour! However, with slow dial-up, this will post a little late. Anyway, here is my entry for her contest.
I worked this pattern on Sugar N' Cream Red with size 7 needles, one long aluminum and one short wooden needle using the English method. (I must remember that I should match up my needles correctly now that this contest is over!) The dishcloth measured a big 10 inches square--great for lots of dirty pots and pans!
My name for this pattern is: Red Sunset at Midnight. This has been fun! Thank you to Anne over at The Bag Lady and the Pro for the contest and for two wonderful new dishcloth patterns.

I would love to be able to do that...never ventured there...maybe I'll add that to my list of things to learn :)

Very nice, Deb. I didn't get mine finished. I had one more repeat to do but too much school work left for Monday morning, so I just had to call it quits. I like your red yarn for this one. I used a deep burgundy,which was also very pretty for showing up this pattern.

That is beautiful! Pretty things make washing dishes so much easier. :)
Hmmm... not so sure about easy and pots & pans in one sentence, though.

Love the name of your dish cloth.Reminds me of Iceland-The Land of the Midnight Sun.

Your discloth looks sooo nice. My dishes are starting to get jealous! I'm going to have to learn how to knit one, so they don't get mad :)

This is on my to-do list. I know how to knit but I've never actually knit anything. I figure this is a manageable first project!
