This is the yarn I am choosing to make either a placemat or a hair towel with. Help me decide?

I love Sugar 'n Cream 100% cotton yarn. The colors are so pretty.

Last sample swatch for now. #11 from Studio Knit, called 7x3 Rib Stitch. I like it. Front and back shown. I don't think this one is reversible.

Now to eventually tuck in the tails and then select two patterns to go together to use for a placemat or hair towel. I can't decide. I would love a full placemat. And I would love a hair towel.

Good morning

It's a new day and we're already on day 2 of the week.

This morning I finished off my second sample swatch. I highly recommend for new knitter's to make these. Even if it is only the two main stitches. Seeing the difference in the patterns by themselves while seeing how each pattern effects how much yarn is used, how the pattern determines the shape of the swatch, how many stitches and rows are used to get these sizes. I honestly love how I can see the difference.

The project I started yesterday has been unraveled. I was wanting to do two different patterns, one for the border and one for the middle. Now I will make sample swatches so I can put different patterns next to each other for better matching.

So...on to the next learning project. Hopefully this will be my coffee station mat. πŸ€ͺπŸ‘πŸ™
