Our hostess reports that last year’s party linked 81 bloggers together and resulted in more than 200 yummy recipes. That is quite a recipe haul.
Bats in My Kitchen
Much as I’d like to figure out how to conjure up a magical spell for washing dishes, I have to actually do it myself. I knitted two black cotton dishcloths with a simple bat design while watching Stephen King’s Storm of the Century on Sunday.
I hope you can see the bat design in the photo. This is pretty much the extent of my knitting skills—little cloths and some scarves using a simple cable stitch are about as far as I can go.
You can find the free knitting pattern here. The designer used yarn in the color Grape which is pretty neat, too.
Sam the Shoplifting Seagull
My sister sent this link to me yesterday and I laughed with pure delight over Sam the Seagull’s outrageous shoplifting behavior. At least he shares his ill-gotten booty with his friends.

I love your dishcloth!
And Mark is in love with the seagull clip. Every time we see one, he asks 'Mummy, do you think THAT one likes crisps?'
That dishcloth is crazy fun ! Cooking and I aren't on speaking terms....but I'll check her site anyway and see if I can find some inspiration. Thanks for the link :<)
I love Sam the seagull. He cracks me up!
Love the dishcloth - we both had a fun dishcloth making weekend! I may have to try this one :)
I like your dishcloth! Just the other day I was thinking of embroidering a couple of Halloween themed dish towels. The old fashioned flour sack kind. I have some Aunt Martha patterns someplace in my craft room. I can't knit, but maybe I'll find some time for that instead.
Hope your day is lovely June.
Cute cute dishcloth! I love Halloween. My fondest memories are the popcorn balls my mom used to make.
I saw that seagull flick a couple of days ago. It's pretty funny!
Once again I messed up on getting my comment posted. grrrr.. Thanks for the dish cloth link- how neat! I knit my own too.
Will check out that holiday cooking and Sam. Thanks :)
