Time to Share!

After 7 years, knitting is no longer a hobby but a passion and I find myself dabbling in pattern creation but lacking a place to share them.
My friend celebrated a birthday yesterday and I gave her a dishcloth knitted from a pattern I designed. I meant to print out the pattern to share it but my printer refuses to acknowledge the fact that there is a wireless printer on the network.
I decided that it was time to have a place to share my knitted goodies and other ideas - I love to share a good thing!

Here is the daffodil grid for the dishcloth I made for bankerknits. Enjoy!

Cast on 39 sts and work 4 rows seed stitch or garter stitch.
Row 5 is wrong side - work 3 sts border then purl to last 3, work border.
First 3 and last 3 sts on either side are worked as border, last 3 rows are worked as border as well. Purling the green and yellow stitches on the right side and knitting them on the wrong side is a great alternative if you don't want to change colors.

The finished cloth:
