My April Mid Month KAL is finally FINISHED!!!!!!!!

(Above cloth knit using Elmore Pisgah's Honeysuckle Cotton and size 4 mm needles. Finished Size is 7.5 tall x 8.25 wide. It's a nice small size for people who prefer smaller cloths.)

WHEW .. this was a challenging little cloth with all the interruptions I've had lately! The phone never stops ringing, the family never stops chatting, the TV is always going, at one point I was attempting to knit this and watch American Idol! WHOOPS ... that didn't go too well. FROG FROG FROG! ((**arrggghhhh**)) However, it is not DONE, FINISHED and ready for my sink! giggles .. isn't it purdy!!! My palages Lisa designed this one for the Monthly Dishcloth Knit-A-Long.
