Starfish Dishcloth

Hurray for summer!!  It's time to pack the car, fill up at the gas station and hit the open road. Whether its a day at the beach, a weekend visit with relatives or camping under the stars at one of our many national parks, road trips are synonymous with summer.  Don't forget to take a small project to knit along the way, something small enough to fit in your purse or beach bag.  Dishcloths are quick to knit and make wonderful hostess gifts.
