Eazy Face Wipes

-



The Eazy Pee-zy Wipes I made in response to the toilet paper "crisis" in 2020 are too small to use as washcloths, and regular washcloths are too big for my face routine. 

These are perfect!

So just like the Wipes, here is the supply list and instructions. The only difference is in the number of stitches cast on.

Supplies

Needles: US 5/3.75mm
Yarn: Berroco Pima 100 or other super soft cotton in worsted weight
Other supplies: darning needle, scissors
Gauge: 6 sts/inch

I got my yarn from The Yarnery.

Finished measurements approximately 6x6"

Directions


Using the long tail cast on, cast on 35 stitches.

s1wyif*, k32, s1wyif*, k1

Knit in pattern until your fabric is about 6" square. Bind off and weave in ends.

*Holding yarn in front, slip one stitch.

Experiencing a run on toilet paper because of a pandemic? Do you want to use less toilet paper? Need some mindless knitting to calm your anxiety? Look no further than Eazy Pee-zy Wipes . Save the tp for #2 and use these soft petite wipes for your #1 drying needs. Soft Pima cotton is much more comfy than dry paper anyway, and with each wipe at 10g, you'll have enough for ten wipes in each skein. Calming garter stitch knitting makes this a relaxing knit and the double slipped stitch edge makes the wipe neat and handsome.

Little Red Book

I'm thinking about blogging more. A friend in the Fediverse is doing it and another fiber artist asked for others who are also writing in this long-is form. Lately, I've been exploring Little Red Book, the Chinese version of TikTok, in part because so many people I follow went there. I am not an influencer or even a content creator outside trying fun filters. I probably won't be posting anything at Xiǎo hóng shū (小红书) because I'm not interested in becoming either a content creator or influencer. I used TikTok to be entertained and to learn things. Some things I learned on TikTok include how to properly put on compression socks, without a lot effort, things about my ADHD that I didn't know, and starting in 2020, I began following epidemiologists there. I say all of this because what I've discovered at Xiǎo hóng shū is that their knitting content very far surpasses what content I've seen on English speaking social media. I am blown away by what I've seen s...
