My first pattern!

I wrote my own pattern.  Its not real difficult or hard or even really creative.  But here it is.

I used Bernat Handicrafter Cotton Stripes.  I picked the breast cancer pink color.
It only took about a quarter or so of the skein.
I used size 6 (US) straight needles.
I call it the Sideways Washcloth
K=knit, P=purl
Cast On 34 stitches. (this will be height of wash cloth)
Rows 1-4 knit across
Row 5: K4 P26 K4
Row 6: K across
Row 7: K4 P26 K4
Row 8: K across
Row 9: K across
Row 10: K across
Repeat rows 5-10 until desired width.

The stripes were from the yarn itself.

I just cast on and knitted and this is the serendipity that happened.  It will be going to my friend, April, who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer.  That's why I chose the yarn that would donate to breast cancer research.  Thanks Bernat!
