In the lazy days between Christmas & New Year I made a cloth for another knitter in a swap. I actually made two using the same pattern as I was experimenting with colours and then couldn't decide which to send. So I asked a few friends which one they preferred & this cloth won, was duely wrapped up & put in the post:
Ballband Dishcloth in Turquoise & Green varigated cotton
(full details are available on my Ravelry Project Page)
and this cloth stayed at home:
Ballband Dishcloth in Turquoise & White cotton
I added i-cords to both so they could be hung up.

Then I made a Garterlac Dishcloth which was good TV knitting:

and you can see a close up of the pattern here.

Finally I decided to be brave & had a play with crochet:
Pinwheel crocheted dishcloth
This pattern was loaned to me by a friend & was out of an old book that had belonged to her Grandmother so I can't link to it I'm afraid.

The dishclothes that stayed at home are being used to brighten up our foul kitchen but not really working as it's such a horrible room :(
So that's me nearly up to date on forgotten projects. I've got one more from last year but need to find the photos. My WIP's are progressing slowly but so far no photos have been taken so I've got nothing to share on those yet.....

Did you know that Knitting Daily had a free pattern for a potholder the other day? to demonstrate the technique of domino knitting - it looked really nice.
I like your garterlac one!
Cute dishcloths. I love the teal colored one too.
